And now another cartridge from Winchester. Supposed to be equal to the 450 Bushmaster with half the recoil.

Yup why all this attention going to these states with the 1.8 straight wall case rules.

What are the dimensions of this one? Is it based on an existing case or is it another round you can't find brass for?

The 350 Legend is a (.355") 9mm long so lemmee guess here......the 400 will be a 10mm long?? :roll:

You know, when the 350L came out, I got interested and researched it to death, even entertained an upper for my AR, but after really looking at it I decided it wasn't for me, while I might get excited about new cartridges when they come out, I am still a traditionalist, especially when it comes down to what is likely to remain in production should things get tight. 30-30, 308, 30-06, 357M, 9mm and 45ACP, they are all so ingrained in the American way of shooting life, I have no doubt they will always be around. The only new cartridge I am considering is the 360BH because I don't have a 35REM, if I did, I would not feel the want. And the 360 has infinitely common components for reloading, so if it takes and holds, it ought to be around for long enough to maybe have an interest for a now little boy that might be interested in Pop's deer rifle in about 10 years...

All this hoopla over 7 states...
Those states that used to be shotgun only because they were "scared" of the longer range of the rifles.
So now they are designing these straight walled cases that are slightly more powerful than some of the popular hunting rifles.:unsure: So what gives?
Then they are also designing these for the AR's which our POS government is steadily trying to take away from us, another:unsure:
So... they must think or no that this won't happen?:unsure:
This just doesn't past the smell test to Me.

The 401 SLR was no slouch either.

There isn’t a whole lot anymore that passes the smell tests and most of those 7 states have the biggest numbers of antigun people anyway

Anti-gunners like to say ar-15s aren’t for hunting, so if stuff like the .350 legend and .400 legend help to take away that argument, I’m all for it. But personally, I’m a traditionalist when it comes to calibers.
