Glad to see that even though slow loading components are showing up. We are just starting to receive back orders of primers. Better get used to the new normal though as wholesale price averages about $70.00 per 1000. Thats far better than gun show prices I am seeing at about $150.00 per 1000. I suspect full retail will run about $100.00 after they are fully available.

Not to change the subject too much, but I still feel that Winchester dropped the ball by making the 350 legend use a .355” bullet.

I will agree with you Like making the 450 Bushy in .452 and not.458.

Really ! I didnt know that. That would make it more of a 9mm than a 35. As far as cast bullets go 35 caliber may be the most well represented caliber extant. Its one of the dual handgun and rifle calibers that stays the same diameter so has an extremely wide range of bullet weights. I never paid any attention to the 350 Legend simply because I felt it redundant with the already existing 35 caliber cartridges. I guess it has its market knitch but since here in MT we dont have the laws that created its knitch it failed to catch my interest. The 357 mag, 35 Rem, 358 Win, and 35 Whelen keep my 35 cravings well satisfied.

i looked at the 350 Legend and as soon as i saw it had .355" bullet, i was disappointed. Winchester, in their infinite wisdom, did not do us any favors when they went with propriety brass. Custom barrel manufacturers (like MGM, Bullberry, David White....) did a true .358" with the Legend.
the 350 Legend and the 357 Maximum do about the same thing ballistically, i think.
