This is what good, responsible hunting looks like. Thanks for the video, and for showing the young man how to do it right!
Thanks Roger!
I know I am 2 years late and a dollar short to this conversation but I just came across this on RUclips. A senior Ohio hunter here and used a Savage Axis II XP 350 Legend during the 2023 season. Three deer taken (my county's limit) across 4 days of hunting. The first made it about 45 yards with a shoulder/double lung shot. The second down immediately at 28 yards with a head shot. The third I took at 58 yards and reminds me of the deer taken in this video at 5:10. Back-flipped and managed to go another 20 yards downhill before piling up. A couple of observations. I'll take shot placement over knockdown power any day; although both work well together :). And the 350 Legend is a deceptively wonderful deer cartridge. For the record, used the Winchester Deer Season XP 150 grain Extreme Point...
Second year using the 350. Last year killed a doe at 200 yards dropped on the spot. This year, a 7 point ran 40 yards and dropped. On the last day of our season my son dropped a doe in her tracks. My hunting partner uses a 270 and shot a doe she ran 70 yards before expiring. All four shots were good placement and terrific bullet performance. Deer are hearty animals. Love the 350, accurate and fun to shoot.
That is a great .350 story! Thanks for sharing!
After being a gun smith for 15 years, I hear the phrase "knockdown power" all the freaking time.. How about "SHOT PLACEMENT " ???
Your so right shot placement is way better.
How about both
@@johnheaps4559if shot placement is "way better", people would be hunting deer with 22LR.
@@jasono2139i have seen .22 kill deer and hogs, but we can deny knock down power exist.
@@mariomoso1059 and I've seen people make full court basketball shots... that doesn't mean they're just as easy to make as free-throws doofus. 🤦
I love my Ruger American 350 Legend. As an senior hunter with shoulder issues, it is perfect for me, with little to no recoil. Thanks for your video.
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching. Don’t let that kick get’ cha!
@@UnlimitedWhitetailHunting It won't, that's why I chose the 350 over the 450.
I feel your pain! I am 80 years old and still going after deer. We have to use slugs in Illinois, but I hear there is a possibility they might allow straight wall rifle cartridges in the future. I have never shot a 350, but I sure want one, the problem is that I just don't need it yet. But that shouldn't stop me from buying one. Ha! Ha!
@@foghorn13 You will love it, guaranteed!!
I fell in love with the 350 Legend last year. I shoot the AR platform for hogs and I've used several calibers and loads, but nothing has given me joy like shooting my CMMG 350 legend. It destroys hogs and bullseyes, and I'm planning to deer hunt with it this year. For medium sized game under 200 yards, it's my favorite gun, hands down.
A hunter isn't a hunter over 100 yds.. These blinds are ridiculous too. Stalking is the only honorable way.
@spocker22 I used to be a snob as well, but I try not to be these days.
@@spocker22 a moron comments like you go stalk them like an Indian and make a video so we can all watch you in action and learn from your expertise and correct all of or many imperfections
I'm not familiar with the CMMG 350 Legend... but I can say that my BCA 20" upper with side charging handle works beautifully!
The recoil impulse is mild and smooth. I'd actually say my 16" 556 is more snappy than my 350 Legend.
Aside from the bullet needing lobbed beyond 200 yards... it's a really nice cartridge.
I get a genuine chuckle when I hear some of these know-it-all armchair gunnery Seargent's talk about how "weak" the 350 lgnd is! hahaha! Dude, my late uncle dropped sooooooooooooo many deer with a Marlin 336 in .35 Remington and a fixed 4X Weaver scope from the early 80's. Deer after deer after deer fell within 40 yards of the hit, and MANY went down there on the spot! Granted all shots were well under 200 yards out, but most of our hunting is in the brush anyways! I see the .350 Legend as nothing more than a modern day version of a cartridge that has already been proven since 1908!!! IT JUST WORKS!
Great vid!
OH, and just an FYI, I am a middle age grandpaw myself and have taken more deer than I can count off the top of my head. Most of them fell to my very old bolt action Stevens 30-30 lol
It’s a great caliber!!
I totally agree with you these children Have never listened to anyone, and they think they've landed on the moon😂😂😂😂😂
@@stephenembrey883 what children? Are you making fun of my kids?
love the legend. gave it flack when it first came out calling it a nitch cartrige but very quickly changed my mind when i got a hold of one, not only noticing lack of recoil but the ballistics of some rounds including my favorite the 180gr winchester. my first deer ever taken was a reasonably sized 7 point buck shot with a 357mag revolver. i had a choice between a 20ga, muzzleloader and my fathers 357 mag and a few days b4 season i took all 3 to the range and had both cheap optics fail on my 20ga and muzzleloader, didnt have much money back then for equiptment, but luckily the trusty SW686 was printing 3 inch groups open sights off cross sticks at 50 yard. few days later took it out on public and absolutly leveled my 7 pointer at 30 yards. clean pass through heart shot and he hit the ground, made it 5 ft sorta kinda stood up and then just fell right over. shot placement it obviosly #1 thing with any caliber but with that under my belt i had no doubt in my mind a 357 caliber bullet would do the job effectivly but out of a rifle and with a bullet constructed to handle higher velocity impacts i finally accepted the fact that the 350 legend is more then a nitch cartridge or a cartrige for only certain states, but a round that is very well tailored for the deer woods.
Cool story David. Thanks for sharing! I think the “Legend” is appropriate for this caliber.
Agree with the 350 Legend being a nice deer cartridge, having its niche for recoil sensitive shooters. AND thanks for sharing your S&W 686 story (used to carry a 8 3/8" 686, in a shoulder holster, deer hunting back in the 1980's)!!
I love both my 350 & 450. I reload for mine and use xtp bullets and they do a great job on deer. Good hunting guys!
I have a Ruger Ranch in .350 legend. I have yet to have a deer go more than 30 yds. I am also shooting 150 gr Winchester. I have shot them out to 150 with no problems.
Sweet!! That’s awesome
My. Buddy shot one at 275 and it studded it right in ita tracks fucker didn't even blink before it died
Perfect shot placement on a quartering towards deer. Some people would have forgot to aim there. Great job!
Thanks
.350 legend really packs a punch. Cool video, love you having your boy out. Reminds me with my Dad hunting when I was a kid. Due to this video and a couple others, my next purchase will be a .350 legend upper receiver.
There are not a ton of manufacturers that actually make those; I was surprised.
I ended up trying a Bear Creek Armory upper, 16” 416R stainless barrel, and have been pretty satisfied with it, despite their shoddy reputation. It’s a 2 MOA gun wearing Burris glass and an Amazon bipod for around $350 (not including the lower, which I already had kicking around). I have experienced a single minor FTF in around 50 rounds but it got a Buck when it mattered.
@@habloespwnol2117 BCA was what I want to get, but jamming issues are keeping me reluctant.
@@dennislydon-dt4mqI bought a BCA 20" SS upper (350 Legend) with right side charging handle... so far it's worked flawlessly. I think I've ran about 40 rounds through it so far.
Typically the bigger problem is finding magazines that feed well. I've been using a 20-round CMMG, but I've never loaded it more than half full while shooting targets.
The grouping isn't as tight as I'd like it (probably about 1MOA)... but I'd chalk that up to the dubious ballastics of the bullets and only using a x12 scope.
Nice videos of animals harvested. What I find as an interesting twist of presentation is the video segments buffered by you two dressed as if you are out hunting talking about the hunt progressions and culminations. Clearly, much thought was put into how you would piece it all together. Hunt on!!!
Great footage! Great video! I am a Michigan hunter, and my mind is made up, I will be picking up a .350 for my teenage son, Jonah. Thanks for a great video!
Tell him to high shoulder hit them, or Goodluck finding blood! U have to look at shot placement and take these videos with a grain of salt!!
After listening to the remark in the video about the .350 vs the .450 and some of the comments it never ceases to amaze me how many hunters still think you need a whomper-stomper elk round for whitetails! I'm pretty sure Ohio only permits straight-wall rounds, but if you can shoot accurately any of those deer could have been taken with a .243. Seen it done.
Couldn't agree more! I've hunted everything with my .243, even bear. If I made a bad shot or bullet deflection I was already on sight to put it down with the second shot. Can't wait to hunt coyotes and wolves with my new Axix II .350!
Yes, Ohio requires SWC ammo for hunting, so you need to pay closer attention to your distance and bullet drop than with much faster ammo.
I forget what the drop is if you zero the 350 legend @ 150 yards, but it's nearly +2" at 75 yards and then -4" @ 200 yards. (That's for -1.5" bore axis)
Outstanding shot placement!! Great post thank You for sharing!!
Thanks for watching!!
Been using a 350 Legend for 2 seasons. It’s a hammer, hits hard and puts deer down. Reload 170 gr Hornady soft points. My grandson (9) got his first deer this year with the rifle. One shot and down. He was very excited and hooked on hunting now, asking me if he can use the gun next time. Next fall he gets his own rifle.
Awesome!! Great story
Hope he got that rifle! I’m just getting some of those Hornady 170gr soft points reloaded for the upcoming season in MI. Really glad to hear they’re effective.
The 350 legend is a under estimated round
Very!!
I’ve shot 3 bucks with my 350 I use 150 grain Winchester bullets, the first was a small 8 point he ran about 30 yards, second was a 4 point and dropped instantly and was dead, the third was a big 8 he dropped on the spot but got up and took off and ran about 200 yards, so all in all I love the gun it’s a great gun
Sweet! Thanks for sharing!
Congratulations on 1k! I didn’t even realize until now!
I love my 350 legend! It’s bad medicine for whitetails for sure. I’ve killed 4 deer with mine so far. Great video thanks for posting
Thanks for watching!! We love our legends!
It doesn’t matter what you use. It’s all about shoot placement. This deer season in Pa. Took a Beautiful, big bodied buck with a 127 year old 30-40 Kreg at 90 yards and he dropped like a rock.
I don't think I've ever heard anyone call .30-40 US Krag a weak cartridge, because it certainly isn't. .350 Winchester Legend is actually very similar to .30-40 in weight, velocity, and overall footpounds, so if anything the newfangled cartridge just keeps proving the .30-40's "point" so to say.
A friend of mine shot a buck with a 300 win mag. Gut shot. Tracked it for at least a whole day, little to no blood trail. He says “its a 300 win mag, it should have killed”.
Love it....Picked up a 350 for my daughter and a 450 for myself....After a few times shooting and hunting, the 450 stays in the safe and 350 goes out every trip....Such a smooth shooting gun, and either of us can take a shot at any time.
I love this!! I gotta show this comment to my .450 buddies! 😜😜
Michigan Zone 3 straight wall 350 Legend. 2019 2 nice 9pts, 2 shots. 2020 4 deer 2 bucks, 2 does, 4 shots. 2021 2 bucks, 4 does, 6 shots. Rifle is a home built 95% LaRue AR15, 18" Mos-Tek stainless barrel. All were DRT, Does in the head, bucks in the neck. 40 to 80 yards.
I think the 350 legend is the gun for young, small framed or older that don't do as well with a stiff recoil. I've used a muzzleloader in Ohio gun season for years now and just haven't turned loose the money for it...yet. I hunt WV and Ky as well as Ohio so it would be a good gun for my needs.
My daughter and I have taken deer the past 2 seasons with our 350 legends. They all dropped very close to where they were shot.
Great video.Great bonding time.Passing down our American heritage.
Thanks for watching!
Good video! Many guys bash the .350 without having tried it. For us in the Midwest with straight walled cartridge laws, it’s a great option.
We love it! No issues whatsoever
Congrats....win. .308 is my family's favorite and I have no problem finding ammo , but good for you guys finding a caliber you are happy with...good luck in the future
Thanks! I have a .308 as well but I can’t use it for deer in Ohio. Not legal. Yet…
Our 3006 or 3030 or 270
@@rickshipper2002illegal in Ohio like he said
My stepson took his first buck this year with the 350 I built for him. The wound looked indistinguishable from a 30/30 or 35 Remington
Your boys are dropping the hammer on the deer. Love it, Awesome hunts
Thanks!! We love hunting!
What a nice, clean kill. Just straight down.
I'm sighting in my 350 legend today to take hunting.
Good luck with it! Thanks for watching
Took out a .350 legend for my first season this year! Looking for white tail and black bear. Didn't get one but had a great time learned a lot and made good memories. Good luck on all the future hunts y'all 🤙🏼
This "straight wall madness" is really perplexing. If you mandate elevation of stands, you can shoot anything you want ! Now, a drive may warrant a 12 ga. 3" magnum. My .02 Has a great week !! 🇺🇸
Do these cartridges make hunters safer ?
In Indiana you have to use the straight walled cartridges on PUBLIC land. Most of the public land is in the heavily forested and rolling hills of southern Indiana. On PRIVATE land you can use a 308. So basically you can own 5 acres of flat ground in northern and central Indiana and hunt with a round that can go 3 miles. It’s just plain stupid.
The 350 legend is no doubt enough for knock down & killing power, you proved this in a big way! But some people just over estimate the distant capability of the 350, therefore they end up with poor results! They owe it to the animals to make smart choices when it comes down to taking shots that r beyond the adequate range of the legend! , jus like u & the kid did! Great job on those shots, everything about them were perfect!
95% of deer taken in Eastern states are shot between 50 and 100 yards. The 350 legend is just as capable as the 30-30 out to 200 yards. I think hunters know what round to use. We do a little thing called zeroing. ... usually right before we go deer hunting.
Awesome job. Good luck this fall !!
Thanks! Good luck to you!
.243 and up fine for deer. It's about shot placement.
Great vid, thanks for sharing!
Just bought my oldest son a 350 legend. Excited to reload for it and see what it can do.
😜👍
The 350 legend is basically a reinvented 357 maximum, which when used in rifle length barrels is a fantastic deer and bear round. Any one that says its not a good big game round is not well versed in firearms. Congrats on your successful hunts!
Thanks!!
Maximum? Lol
@@craiggerster9282 That be my West Virginia public school education lol
@@chrisfitch2905 I've been thinking about the 350 or the 450 bushmaster...any thoughts?
@@craiggerster9282 I like the .35 cal rounds a lot. the 350 is flatter shooting and a more versatile round in my opinion. The 450 hits hard, but has more recoil and is not as flat shooting. If your hunting is limited to 100 yards or so, the 450 is great, but I feel like the 350 is just a better overall cartridge, especially in those area limited to straight walled rounds.
I built an ar 15 chambered in 350 legend just for my 10 and 12 year old daughters to hunt with. Hopefully we get a chance at one this year. It's funny bc I've never been more pumped about hunting season.
big fan of your gun/scope combo.💪
During the continuing ammopocalypse (Fall 2022), I think .350Legend’s greatest asset is availability. It’s still not mainstream like the old standbys, so I see it frequently at WalMart & Academy Sports. I’ve been looking at .270win rifles, might need to give the .350 a look.
I would! We love the caliber
I built a 350 legend AR as an "in the woods" gun over the summer. I'm hoping I get the opportunity to use it this year during Whitetail season.
Awesome! Have fun and good luck!
I live in Tn but I’d love to have a place up there to come up hunt deer. I’m disabled and can’t walk far. Congratulations to y’all great video be safe and GOD BLESS GOD BLESS y’all Amen 🙏
I just wanted to add note, I purchased a 350 legend 2 season ago for my daughter cause the muzzle blast from my wife 243 was too much for a 10 year, and besides the 243 is a great deer Slayer but I dread tracking any kills from a 243 cause of very little blood trails, but let me say after 3 different kills 350 legend it will paint a blood trails to the end! And that's if it doesn't fall where it was shot! Thanks Nate
They are awesome guns!!
sir I'm trying to understand what you're saying. the 243 doesn't have much of a muzzle blast. I have 3 350 legends and a handful of 243 and 223. however the 350 is a straight wall is going to have more muzzle blast. I'm not in any means trying to conflict anything with what you are saying but it doesn't make sense to me
@@davidharrell4094 anyone that has shot both the 243 and 350 legend can tell u a noticably difference between the two! However if the 350 legend is being fired from a short 16" barrel the muzzle blast is comparable to the 243 but still barks quieter! Thanks Nate
What brand gun do you guys have??
@@toddmeadows1291 Savage Axis 2
That’s how you let the air out of one great job young man

couldn't have been a better shot! 👍🏻👍🏻
Keep shooting and hunting congratulations on the deer you folks got 👍👍have a great Christmas and happy new year too all !!
The Vermonter
Thanks! Merry Christmas to you!!
I'm a fan. I always wanted a 35 Rem in an AR and this is close enough.
Thanks for this. I have a .450 but was considering a .350 for my kid to use. A lot of the hunting videos I've seen showed deer running off with .350 hits, while .450 mostly drops clean. I don't mind tracking but I don't want an animal to suffer. Again, it's all about training and shot placement.
350 legend is actually a really cool cartridge. Inside of 100 yards it hits hard enough to kill just about anything in North America.
We agree!!
Dude,the young man wants to get busy with the AR,you brought for later. Good video.👍
Straight wall cartridges lol. They no doubt work especially since these straight wall-only areas are usually forested and shots are close. Since I live where real rifle cartridges can be used I will probably never use a 350. It's nice that the firearm companies are coming out with more options for those hunters that live in places where the politicians are missing their logic bone.
The 3030 and 350 legend are practically identical ballistically , the 3030 is a proven deer rifle so the 350 legend is too.
NOW THIS IS QUALITY FATHER/SON TIME BROTHER! @Unlimited Whitetail Hunting
We love it!
Great shot
I shot two does this year at 55 and 85 yards. They went a combined 2 yards... It's all about where you hit them. The best part is that their friends didn't even know what happened and continued to feed.
That’s awesome!
Impressive and interesting results. Were all deer taken with the same ammunition? Or different brands/grain?
The steam that came out the second deers wound was insane. I'm definitely gonna pick up a 350 legend now.
I love my 350 legend. It's put 2 deer flat on their face so far. But im thinking if you don't own a 350 legend yet. Look at the 360 buck hammer instead. It uses 358 projectiles instead of 355-357. Much wider selection of proven projectiles in that range than what is available to reloaders for 350
jyst grabbed mine sunday, thing is utterly insane, cant reccomend it enough
@@jonquirk9582 I would agree but bear in mind that the buckhammer won’t work in an AR
@@danielrobey1759 350 legend does. I've had fantastic results with the 150 gr deer season xp
Anybody trying to argue that 350 Legend is underpowered is rather silly. You'd be surprised how many people out there hunt with pistol carbines in the midwest. This cartridge is something of a modern miracle for hunters who like to use more of a traditional rifle.
True! But there’s surprisingly still many that like to argue about this.
I honestly am surprised at the number of people who DON'T use the 350 Legend in an AR platform, especially in Ohio where you can hunt with an AR.
The young feller shot the perfect shot !
I just bought a 350 legend ...can't wait for season to start.
Good choice and good luck!
Awesome job and awesome round 💯luv mine too…
Very good shots.
Thanks
Glad u have a viable choice for rifle cartridge
I love my 350 legend, I shot one this year, he dropped so fast I couldn't figure out what happened to him..
Lol.. that’s so awesome!!
Just made it legal to use in Illinois. Excited to give it a go
I was thinking a lever action, but it would have to be mag fed. I also thought like the remington model 14 which was in 35 remington which wasn't a rimmed cartridge. Plus the model 14 was light, under loading gate like a shotgun, but could use pointed bullets. The mag tube made it so bullets were chanted in the magazine so the pointed tips wouldn't touch primers. That's the best I could think of that isn't magazine fed, but tube fed. Though the 35 remington and the other loadings for the rem model 14 were bottlenecked so idk how that would work.
21 years old and just figured out a greet reason why they say “smoked em” @ 5:26 damnnn👌🏼
Interesting video, thanks.
The 350 legend is a great gun! We have dropped quite a few as well.
Quick question on the reolink camera. I took mine down to Morgan Co Ohio and couldn't get it to connect...I already had bought a mint mobile prepaid card...it worked good up home but won't connect down there. Did you try out that Eiotclub card? If so how'd it do? What county are you guys hunting in?
Yes we have. It’s working just as good as the T-Mobile did. Way cheaper! We hunt in Tusc county. Update video coming soon.
@@UnlimitedWhitetailHunting Thanks
Just bought a 350 Savage axis bolt, with 18 inch barrel, any good, I watch your videos, love them
My .350 Legend shot at 9 deer and killed basically 8 of them but we haven’t found 1 and I missed one of them (I missed one and my dad liver shot one a few days ago) and its only dropped 4 out of the 7 right there in its tracks and the other 3 only when 10 feet or 25 yards and fell.
That’s a pretty good record
This video was super helpful my dad is buying me a hunting rifle hear soon and he asked me if I wanted a 350 legend or a 243 and I didn't know which one to choose but this video makes it clear which one I'm choosing
Gotta love it when they just drop debating a 350 legend or a 450 bm upper for my ar
Excellent vid.
Thanks
I used a borrowed .450 to take 2 deer in Ohio this year and it was an amazing round with ridiculous knockdown,but with the muzzlebrake it was punshing to my ears.I picked up a .350 and will be using that next trip.
I think you’ll love it!
I have the long barrel 450 bushmaster with no muzzle break and I love it not to bad on the ears but I'm thinking about getting a 350 legend to try also you can never own to many lol
Hearing protection is 5 bucks. Use that. Or get some hearing protection that amplifies sound so you can hear deer coming from further. 70 bucks. It's better than being one of those old people everyone has to repeat everything to 3 times
The report out of my 20" 350 Legend is fairly subdued. It kind of sounds like a paintball gun on steroids.
My 556 is by far a sharper crack even when standing beside someone else shooting it.
Dropped a doe at 120 yards this November, she didn’t go ten yards!! Love my Ruger 350 legend!!
Sweet!!
I live and hunt in Ohio. During gun season I use a River American predator 22” in 350 Legend. 4-12x scope. Hornady 170hr soft points. Longest shot 108 yards and the deer only ran about 50 yards all
Down hill of course. Good little deer round imo
Ruger American predator
I have both and they are great have them in a ar and a savage axis and I even built a Mauser 450 I'd say it's more bullet choice over bullet size
Nice iam right on P A OHIO Line Greenville. They run back and forth. I did 3 this year 280 35wellen 25-06 yes H&R .
I have just heard about this rifle. It looks good buddy. Great looking rifle.
It’s awesome!!
I’ve shot 5 deer with mine and range is not issue when it comes to the 350 I shot a buck at 260yds and a doe at 250yd neither ran more than 50yds i have never missed a deer with the round my father can not say the same with his 450 just saying both guns have Leopold scopes the exact same model with different Tourette’s 350 is so underrated
Boom!! That’s what I’m talking about! You don’t have that on video by chance do you?

I use a .270 Remington. I guess that's a pea-shooter to you guys! Sure have put much venison in the freezer with it since I bought it back in 1986. Used the money I made during the summer working for $7 an hour, after paying tuition and books. Good money back then! I've made a decent living with 2 A.A.S degrees from community college. I paid for the first one, Uncle Sam paid the second (G.I. bill).
No a .270 is not a pea-shooter. In fact if I’m not wrong it packs more of a punch then the .350. I’m not an ammo expert but the .270 is not a straight walled ammo and therefore has more powder in the cartridge.
@@UnlimitedWhitetailHunting Oh yeah. I know. That was a tongue-in-cheek comment. The son of the .30-06 is a fine rifle. I would equate the .350 to the .30-30. A reliable, rugged and effective caliber in many situations.
How is the .350 legend recoil compared to a 20ga slug shotgun? I am a steady shot with my 20ga sabot slug barrel with steel rifle sights and don't mine the recoil after switching from 12ga. Shot a large +150lb doe last week with the 20ga from 123 yards and she dropped straight to the ground. The slug went right through her with 1 inch exit hole. Does the .350 legend usually go through? Iowa now has straight cartridge laws and thought about getting the Ruger American .350 legend, but I just bought this 20ga shotgun so I feel like I need to use it a while before putting it on the shelf.
Less recoil from the .350. Or I’d say so. It’s just so nice and accurate and smooth. You’d love it!
Great video
Don't know about 'knockdown' power, but with ballistics similar to the tried and true. 30-30, it's got plenty of juice for deer sized game inside 200 yards.
I’m a .450 Bushmaster friend 😉. Looking to get a .350 Legend for the youngin’s. Thanks for the videos!
Thanks for watching! Just be careful… you might just like the .350 better for yourself too!

I did not want to use the 350 legend, I thought it was just another AR round that is not usable for hunting ... Boy was I wrong. I made one specifically for hunting using 350 legend and that caliber is one of the best deer hunting rounds I've used. I love the 30-06 but this round far better in the hunting scenarios I partake in
Every ar round is a hunting round lmao I mean 308 is a 762 223 is a 556 so what's not suitable cuz millions of yoles get killed with 223 556 bunch of deer get killed with 308 762 or even 6.5 creed which is another popular cal.. are you by chance a guy who thinks they have no place on hunting lmao.. well I can kill commies in the morning and yoyr family's food in the evening all with the same round
@@tyler1671 no. I'm a guy who like to see what I shoot drop dead when I hit it. Running and dying is not cool for me.
I could shot them with a 22 if a wanted... But I don't. I own and reload all of the popular and not so popular rounds, but some are better than others. I have a thing where I will kill with every weapon I own, but some will only get one kill as it was not efficient enough for my liking.
@@jaimeastin I'm sorry but if you can drop.it dead in one shot come to ohio snd I'll teach you something last time I hunted our farm I smoked a doe at 275 yard with a ar pistol and dropped it... straight slumped the bitchb didn't go 2 feetb
@@jaimeastin I've also shot them with a 22 they drop just the same. Friend of mine and I hunted a game farm at night which was legal to do since these were privately owned deer and at 85 yards and a spot light my buddybsaid which eye I said left snd I shit you not that deer dropped and the right eye was gone savage 22 bolt action
I just dropped a down the 28'th of December with my Savage axis 2 in 350 legend and I live in s.c. where I can shoot any caliber I want. Wanted a short range rifle and love the 350.
Thanks for sharing! It’s an awesome caliber!
AWESOME Quick humane
I shot a few deer with the 450 and my experience is it tears them up to much!! I just got me a 350 and can’t wait to have an opportunity to see what it will do to a deer!
I love it!!
I live in South Eastern Michigan. The 350 most certainly gets the job done without the unnecessary and obnoxious excessive muzzle blast and recoil of the 450 or a 12 gauge slug. Cheaper ammo and much more fun to shoot as well. I bought my Savage XP, and scope package, chambered in 350 Legend in November of 19 and have killed 5 deer with it so far, 2 of them being the 2 biggest bucks I have shot in my 24 years of deer hunting. I have settled on the 180 grain Winchester Deer Season round. Like you, if anyone wants to scoff at my deer rifle and ammo choice, I will just show them the pictures. 🙂
I was at a private gun collection auction over the weekend and the 12 ga slug guns were about 1/2 price of the straight walled rifles. Nobody wants them anymore.
@@UnlimitedWhitetailHunting Quite understandable.
Why the 180 grain instead of the 150 grain deer season xp round?
@@jasono2139 Quicker knock-down without turning nearly as much meat prematurely into hamburger.
@doctortabby I saw a few complaints from people that the 150 grain bullet likes to fragment sometimes... is the Super X 180 really that much better at staying together?
I currently have a 450 an love it but a 350 is no slouch, I got the chance to shoot one at the range some guy offered so couldn't say no, it was very comfortable gun to shoot I been wanting one ever since
