This state always has a gun show going on someplace somewhere, or the neighboring states. Start lookin them up, put them on a calender and go and have fun with some buddies.

This was my biggest concern when they started allowing pistol-caliber rifles. Slippery slope to straight-up rifle cartridges. I've always thought it should have stayed shotguns and muzzleloaders. But you won't beat the gun lobby and a DNR that wants deer killed and more revenue.

While i haven't seen any numbers but I don't expect this being anything special ballistically. It sounds like it uses a normal 30-30 parent case and pressures will be limited by the intended actions. This is just a rimmed .350 legend with better bullets.
One of the reasons you don't see a 350 legend lever action is chamber pressures. The 336 action holds both the 30-30 & 444 which have pressures of 42k psi, the 350 legend is at 55k psi. The design can't hold that pressure. I'm sure they are working on it but...

Agreed. My point was more, ever seen many pistols chambered in 350 legend, 450 Bushmaster, 360 buckhammer or 45-70? Now how many do you see in rifles during gun season? The argument BFA always used was "we can use straight-walled cartridge pistols today, why can't we use those same rounds in a rifle." It was never about pistol calibers and all about rifles. Bet your ass Winchester already had plans to introduce the 350 before they ever started lobbying states to allow PCRs and remove named caliber restrictions to open it up to all "straight walled" calibers. Good for the gun companies and ammo manufacturers who get to sell a shitload of new rifles and ammo though.

Remington had buckhammer slugs forever and owned the trademark on the Buckhammer name. Since rifles have all but killed shotgun hunting it makes sense to transfer the buckhammer moniker to something new and more relevant.
Those buckhammer slugs were Sabots...my brother had a smoothbore 20 gauge 1100 that would shoot them better than anything else. I never understood it though.

I’ll start a .360 buckhammer thread so as to not hijack this one
