I can't for the life of me figure out why someone would want one when they don't have the limitations.
I keep hearing the BS of brush busting and low recoil and killing power.
Really? More than a 7-08? Better than a 30-30?

We have to use a straight wall cartridge in Iowa (recently changed to .35 and over) but we bought a couple of bolt guns in .350 Legend rather that shotgun slugs or muzzleloading. We have taken 7-8 in the last couple years and I have been pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of the cartridge. Mild recoil and very accurate. Using the Winchester 150 Deer Season load. No deer has gone more than 30 yards or so, good blood trails etc.. Not hard to get at least 200 yards accurately. Have the Leopold scope that has the compensation dialed in for the .350 Legend
