We'll have a better idea after Ohio gun season.

Despite it's warts, the 9 Magnum is very fun to shoot, and they are selling like hotcakes here in Ohio.


I reread this thread and then went back to Winchester's website. On Winchester's site it says bullet diameter. 357. I have looked at other sites and they have said .355 and .356. Has anybody measured an actual bullet from Winchester to see? There is several different answers according to where you look on the web.

I too would like "9mm magnum" also. I think this round would be awesome around the farm for varmints and wild dogs. If the bore is 9mm looks to me like some of the new monometal pistol bullets in this would be a hoot.
