It’s great when a cartridge is easy on the shooter, but that doesn’t matter much if it doesn’t perform in the field. (It’s just over a 250-percent reduction.) The. 350 Legend’s muzzle blast is much lower than that of a. That huge difference in volume explains why the.

350 Legend has a volume of 1.92 cubic inches (cu.-in.) and the. By the time the bullet gets to the end of a 20-inch barrel, the volume of the bore is considerably different between the two rounds. 223 Rem., we see both having a maximum chamber pressure of 55,000 pounds per square inch (psi) and both using about 21 grains of powder. Calling the Legend’s muzzle blast mild is an understatement no rifle cartridge has less.Ĭomparing the. You can get an idea what exit pressure will be like by learning to analyze a cartridge based on how much powder is in the case, the bore diameter and the barrel’s length. Muzzle blast is caused by a high exit pressure, or the pressure of the gas inside the barrel when the bullet leaves the muzzle. While this law started in Michigan, it has since spread to other states including Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania. These dimensions were aimed at making sure that no bullet of that diameter fired from that type of case would travel far enough from the muzzle to pose much of a threat to potentially nearby residents. In March 2017, the NRC recommended the law’s sunset provision be removed “entirely.” 35-caliber or larger ammunition with straight-walled cartridges that have a minimum case length of 1.16 inches and a maximum case length of 1.8 inches to take deer in the limited firearms deer zone.

In June 2014, Michigan’s Natural Resources Commission (NRC) approved the regulation to allow the limited use of certain rifles capable of using. So, here’s what I’ve learned thus far on the how and why Winchester unveiled the. I’m all about a healthy debate, but I’m an optimist at heart. There are the curious who wonder why it exists and what problem it solves, and then a few folks approach it with hostility and point out what the cartridge doesn’t do. When a new cartridge comes out, shooters seem to fall into one of two camps.
