I bought my Rugar rifle in 350 about 3 years ago. Love the recoil. Love the accuracy. Jams like a SOB! Passed on a CVA single shot and ended up with a Rugar single shot.
I just bought that exact gun. I highly recommend tightening the rail - it's loose from the factory and full of oil underneath and likewise the threaded barrel-end is only finger tight. Givem a good tightening. I love that gun and the videos!
When I sight my rifles in I never go low like you did. I have never shot big bores. 264 win mag, 270 , 7mm rem mag, 30:06. And 308 are what I'm used to. Great channel I really enjoy it.
I picked one up for my grandson a few months ago. My bolt was the same way. I just worked it a few times added a little oil and it broke right in gonna try it out in about two weeks. For the youth hunt here in Michigan.
This is my first year hunting with my 350 legend 170grain Hornady I’ve taken two nice 8 pointers and a six dropped everyone of them an outstanding round especially for brush hunting at least from my experience!
The rugers magazine is a ten round magazine that Ruger stuffed a ton of coils of spring in to make it a 5 round magazine. I took the spring out and cut about 8 coils off and it cycles beautifully now no flaws at all
I just got one of these I zeroed it with 1.5-4x Leopold and had the same issues with it shooting super high at 100 yards. Got that sorted out but had the same sticky bolt issues its definitely not a mauser with a controlled round feed claw extractor or even a Ruger M77. I will say this it's super accurate with almost every bullet weight and design from Winchester 145gr FMJ to Winchester 150gr Spitzer, Hornady SST 170gr and Winchester 180gr hunting loads @ 75yards it chews one ragged hole in the center of the target with zero scope adjustment! Ruger if you are listening build this in an M77 I think you already did as a scout. Which will be my next 350 legend purchase.
Best kept secret is the 350 legend...shoots well out to 200 yards and hits like a train. Best thing though is ammo is cheap and plentiful! My buddy got a AR upper and he loves it. Only pain is you have to modify magpul 30rd mags with a Dremel or file, then it feeds fine
I’d love to see the terminal effects of 350 Legend on a deer. I used 450BM this year & could use a little lighter caliber next year. But the KO power of 450 is awesome! Good luck hunting!
I just bought a 350 legend today because of that exact issue. I shot a nice buck last year with my 450 bushmaster and had to throw away almost all of the shoulder I hit
@Nathan Dix did you get one? My father-in-law loves his 350 legend. He let a friend use it to take his daughter hunting. She killed a doe the first day. He went out and bought her one. LOL
Shot my first deer this year with a Ruger AR 350 legend with a 18 inch barrel. Shot it between 30 to 40 yards and it ran about the the same distance before dropping. I used 180 gr Power-Point Super X.
A little yes, but not so much in my area. Here around central MI, my local Cabela's was pretty much wiped out of most rifle ammo and no handgun ammo...yet they had well over a couple hundred boxes of 350Legend filling all the empty shelves. I found it surprising since the lower half of the lower peninsula is a rifle restricted zone for deer so straight wall cartridges, handguns, and shotgun only.

Bagged my eight point public land whitetail on Thursday using the 350 Legend. He stumbled thirty yards to his death bed. Complete pass through and blew two inch holes through both his lungs!
@@nateboyd1758 love the concept of this round! You get a modern day 35 Remington in a bolt action rifle and or AR :) It definitely hits game harder than it's paper ballistics. I think it has something to do with the caliber. The extra frontal area shows up on impact! Is there better choices? No doubt! But if you're looking for something that's lightweight points fast light recoiling accurate and inexpensive ammo.. the 350 Legend has that covered :)
I like the set up! Nice rifle and optic! I like zeroing rifles, it's fun and at the same time, I see how accurate I am with my rifle/ammo choice with it's group sizes. I remember years ago, I zeroed my dad's 22-250 for him and when he asked if it was on, I brought back a quarter that had a hole in Washington's head and said "yup, it's on." I admit, I was pretty proud of myself to put a hole in a quarter from a 100 yards, yet folks out there punching milk jugs at 2,000 yards, lol.
I have two 350 legends. One is a AR15 platform. One is XPR Winchester. Both perform equally well. No bolt problems with XPR. Have been reloading for both of them. I shortened the spring length until the AR cycled properly with light bullets. If I am going to spend money on a new rifle it had better not have flaws like the ammo feeding on the Ruger American. Over the years I have not been successful with the Ruger brand.
It’s funny holding an actual 350 Legend cartridge in hand…looks small…but then you go to your target and look at the holes it leaves behind and think, geez that’s a pretty big bullet hole. Knocks steel around pretty good too…there are steel plates at 100 and 225 at the range where I shoot…does a good job.
Holy cow..... I've been looking at that model in 7.62 because 300 is hard to find and.... I told my friend if I find one in 350 I'm sold.... now I'm sold... I love the small rifle. Hope you enjoy It
Had the same problem with the sticky bolt on my American ranch in 5.56. Almost felt like broken glass and the milling was sharp enough to peel skin. I was out targeting with a friend and the bolt itself literally fell apart on the 3rd rnd in the mag. Hasn't seen more the 25 rounds at this time. Ended up having to send it back to ruger for what they called an updated bolt. Works like a dream now its so smooth you can speed shoot with it now. Something to keep in mind before your firing pin decideds to pop out and hit you in the eye.
I love my 350 Legend... the 180gr Winchester powered points hand loads are my favorite.. makes a nice deer rifle in the area I hunt in.. have one in a AR and a Ruger Scout Rifle
Looking forward to seeing that grouping video. We need Paul to help you sight in initially. I have my dad help me. Soon as I get one on the paper I put the scope back on the center of target, hold the rifle rock steady and have my Dad turn my turrets down or up to where the hole from first shot was at. Takes the guesswork out of it for you since these cheap scopes are rarely 1/4" adjustment precise. I don't own any high end scopes under 60 years old. After Dad gets me turned down to first shot and then I recenter, it's usually within a half inch of where I need to be. I don't have a gun vice so I can't go this route with the precision that I can with an extra set of hands. Your oldest boy should be big enough to turn those turrets for you while you hold the gun down/steady. Have a good weekend and good luck to you and the youngins in the woods
I found the bolt was not the issue on mine, as far as being smoother. My magazines were the issue on my 7.62x39mm Ruger American. The edges were rough, found sharp edges. The cartridges were hanging up a lot, forcing the cartridges, I could see bad scratches on them. I took my Dremel, used the cone shaped Cratex, like for polished feed ramps, and cleaned up all the edges, smoothed them out. Works heaps better now. These were factory Ruger 5 rd. Mini-Thirty mags. All 5 of my magazines were like this.
Awesome you finally did it ! I can't wait to see like the Hornady 165 FTX and 170 soft point ammo ballistic gel testing out to 100 yd I shot a buck Thanksgiving week with mine four deer with that gun in the last two years two of them DRT at 100 love the performance so far, keep the fun and entertaining videos coming good job!
when i sighted my rifle in i used a bore sight, but i started at 50 yards when i used my bore sight it has the target and i put my cross hairs in the middle of that and i was on paper at 50 yards but my riffle did the same thing after you were on paper but now that it is on i love it. to smooth out that bolt i used J-B Non-Embedding Bore Cleaning Compound i put that on my bolt and cycled my bolt a good 300-400 times then cleaned my riffle really good and that seemed to smooth out my bolt. love the video.
At the risk of getting some flak, if the scope you are using is second focal plane, when you change the zoom your point of impact will change, if its first focal plane it want. Thanks for the video !!!
I have one of these in a Winchester XPR. The 350 Legend is pretty impressive, I sighted it in and it's 5/8th" 100 yard groups all day long if I do my part, if I mess up it's 3/4" groups. I have a Nikon 2.5x10 Monarch on mine. Perfect whitetail and coyote rifle for where I live in Southern Indiana.
How long did it take? I'm pushing 800 rounds threw mine in 556. Still sticky. Also how does the 762 hurt the wallet? I heard it got expensive. Only reason I got the 556 and I'm not a big fan of 300blk.
Bore sight at 25 yards you'll be within 4 inches at 100 yards, I've done 4 guns this year that way and all were fine tuned to perfect zero within 5 shots
WHO_TEE_WHO I got a book back in 76 for my birthday the Gun Data and I refer to it still just looked at it. So the rifle shots high to 200 yards then you aim high to the drop . My rifle shots 3.5 high at 100 yards cause it’s on a high mount I deal with it. Oh that is sweet set up with the 350 I could deal with it 👍
I love my lil ruger 3fitty for what it is. And by the way man, that action and the mags will smooth out over time. I had a couple jam issues with mine out of the box. But a couple hundred rounds in she never skips a beat with any ammo. Also for what its worth Ruger sells the same mags in 10rd for $16 and they even shipped to me in NY....lol
Love the .350, but I fire mine from an AR upper. This is a rifle I do have on my radar though. I've taken two hogs with it so far. I'm sure any deer doesn't stand a chance. Happy hunting brother.
Thank you for another great video. I greatly appreciate the fact that you buy your own equipment to test. I for one will not criticize you for trying to conserve ammo, because I understand that wasting ammo is really fun when the cost is coming out of your own pocket. Keep up the great work.
Highest I shot was a 223 how much more is it compared to that? More noticeable? I usually hunt low recoil easier to follow my shot and stuff but what’s lowest recoil straight wall cartridge?
I bought my ruger two years ago .I'm like you I don't waste money on high dollar glass my 350 will run half inch groups love watching your videos up here in Idaho
I have the same rifle. I use 150 gr. Winchester whitetail ammo . Yes I have killed a deer. Ruger uses an AR type magazine which in an AR is run fast. I had issues with functioning running the bolt slow, jambs, failure to feed. I have had zero issues running the bolt fast. Run that bolt like your mad at it and it will perform. I have both the factory 5 round & 10 round magazines. Same result for both. Also I have noticed with scopes both used & new on any rifle that the adjustments want to stick if the scope has sat & not been adjusted for long periods of time.
Im a little bit of a gun snob... I didn’t pay much attention to these... until... my friend bought one of these in .450 bushmaster.. I was extremely impressed! They are really nice guns! Period!
Good luck on your hunt. Looking forward to the video on the different 350 Legend ammo groups it should be very interesting. BTW, great slideshow you put up on Patreon. God bless y'all.
It’s not the bolt ,it’s the magazine. Like someone else said the magazine spring coil is too tight . I also removed the spring and 8 coils from the spring of bottom. Mine now cycles great.
Great video man. Was up at deer camp so missed last few video. . Dad missed a coyote. Down from me seen run ball to wall after. He missed with 45-70 at 20 yards go through the brush. I seen one doe at 330pm stunk in behind me got 243 single shot cooked back spoon around just catch tail in my scope
@@WHOTEEWHO have pull trigger yet see them but. Cant get on them or their not legal point wise do to rescrichion here. Was for see one doe i say sat was a bust only deer seen in are camp other then 6 coming in to camp at night
Mine in 5.56 has a nasty bolt too but man does that thing just keep running. I was stalking a group of hogs out here in Florida. Went into some swamp land and found a hole. Poor girl went straight in the mud with me completely covered. Blew out the bore the best I could but only because the group of hogs I was tracking walked right in my path. Dropped two of them back to back and she didn't hang up or complain one time.
Ive got a Ruger Ranch Rifle in 223rem, and it has the same problem, the 4th round hangs up on the chamber. It stopped doing it when I switched to pmags.
It would be my choice in 350 but can't do it. The reason is that when carrying by a sling, the protruding mag would constantly poke you in the back. Where I go is hilly terrain and need to use a sling. Probably going with an Axis 2 that has a flush mag.
I just got a ruger american 350 legend, nice rifle. Also has sticky bolt. Do you think it will correct with shooting? I've noticed small orange shavings from magazine ??
@@Freakingstang the bolt without clip in will catch slightly but not bad. I think i found the main prob when loading rounds, front egde of brass catches on front of mag. I will try to send pic but i'm not good with tech stuff. Hope you get this message.
I highly recommend attending a Project Appleseed clinic. I have been shooting for decades, and I went with the hope of learning something. I am so glad I went, I know I am a better shooter because of it. To anyone who wants some cheap instruction, and a good weekend of shooting, check out an event in your area. You will lean everything from sight adjustment, to breathing and trigger control.
Nice looking RUGER I really like the Americans line for the money hard to beat. Thanks again for all the work you do for us to enjoy. God bless Who Tee Who and family. Stay safe and good hunting
I have the Savage Axis 2 in 350 Legend. Shoots great but the rim of the last round in the mag tends to catch on the front of the mag. some slight filing on the front of the mag should fix that. I see the recoil as being in between 223 an 243. I love shooting it.
@@WHOTEEWHO I figured out why mine is hanging up. There is an indentation (manufactured defect) in the bolt. Specifically in the grove that is supposed to slide past the bolt release. I plan to call Ruger C.S. to see if I can get it replaced. Wish me luck!
A good friend just purchased a 350 Legend...came with a 3 round mag (sits flush with the "belly" of the rifle). After EVERY shot, the rear of the mag has to be pushed back up, or it won't cycle. Any other owners having this same issue???
I would like a hunting video. Is there anything you can do with the bolt? To make it smoother. I have a Ruger American Rifle in 308 win. Love it. I have shot 2 deer, one at 200 and the other at 50 yds. Neither of them moved.
Use white poster board with an orange stick on dot. It works especially well when sighting in a rifle. A 6 inch dot works well. Use orange duct tape to cover the holes in the dot. White on the holes on the white poster board. Target can be used several times when you tape the holes. I buy poster board for .50 a piece at a dollar store. Most sporting good stores have the orange dots in various sizes. I suspect Midway has them also.
GunPrime here: bit.ly/3mTvMhS
Really good vid,its best to take 2-3shot groups before you adjust for elevation and windage
Next time you sight in shoot hold crosshairs on bullseye and move your cross hairs to bullet hole will save tons in ammo and sight in 2-3 shots top
You couldn't see it if you saw it

Neither can i!
I still see 350 legend in stock in a lot of stores so not a bad caliber to have a gun for!
I'm laughing the deer have nothing to fear 😅
That 10 yard sight-in was null and void after the scope was cranked up and down at 100 😂 love these videos! Real and havin fun!
Because why would you even bother sighting in a rifle at 10 yards 🤣
Then blamed the problems on the ballistics and ammo. 😂 Then fired all that ammo just to get it close and call it “good enough”. 🤦♂️
Thanks for watching

Thank you for another great video. I greatly appreciate the fact that you buy your own equipment to test. I for one will not criticize you for trying to conserve ammo, because I understand that wasting ammo is really fun when the cost is coming out of your own pocket. Keep up the great work.
That should have read "when the cost is not coming out of your own pocket."
Thanks Bobby. Very few honest people out there anymore. Appreciate you watching bigtime
Awesome video brother I just subscribed to your channel you make them awesome videos keep up the good work
Thanks Ruben! Appreciate you watching bigtime
Highest I shot was a 223 how much more is it compared to that? More noticeable? I usually hunt low recoil easier to follow my shot and stuff but what’s lowest recoil straight wall cartridge?
You have to do a deer hunting video with the 350 legend. Look forward to the video. Thanks
I bought my ruger two years ago .I'm like you I don't waste money on high dollar glass my 350 will run half inch groups love watching your videos up here in Idaho
I have the same rifle. I use 150 gr. Winchester whitetail ammo . Yes I have killed a deer. Ruger uses an AR type magazine which in an AR is run fast. I had issues with functioning running the bolt slow, jambs, failure to feed. I have had zero issues running the bolt fast. Run that bolt like your mad at it and it will perform. I have both the factory 5 round & 10 round magazines. Same result for both. Also I have noticed with scopes both used & new on any rifle that the adjustments want to stick if the scope has sat & not been adjusted for long periods of time.
That scope set up is jacked up! Get the proper rings and a quality name scope. 3-9x40 all you need for that rifle.
Works just fine
I enjoy your content, thanks for making these videos!
Thanks for watching Dustin
Love watching you and heavy metal i try not to miss a one. Down the earth boys.
Im a little bit of a gun snob... I didn’t pay much attention to these... until... my friend bought one of these in .450 bushmaster.. I was extremely impressed! They are really nice guns! Period!
Good luck on your hunt. Looking forward to the video on the different 350 Legend ammo groups it should be very interesting.
BTW, great slideshow you put up on Patreon. God bless y'all.
Thank you. Hopefully I can find some deer
@@WHOTEEWHO
You're gonna have a good hunt brother.
🦌
@@notsosilentmajority1 hope so
It’s not the bolt ,it’s the magazine. Like someone else said the magazine spring coil is too tight . I also removed the spring and 8 coils from the spring of bottom. Mine now cycles great.
Can’t wait for the next video. I got the 350 but mine is a xpr. Love it.
Love the gun I have one in 350 legend absolutely love it for hunting
One of my favorites
Great video man. Was up at deer camp so missed last few video. . Dad missed a coyote. Down from me seen run ball to wall after. He missed with 45-70 at 20 yards go through the brush. I seen one doe at 330pm stunk in behind me got 243 single shot cooked back spoon around just catch tail in my scope
Daggumit. I still can't even find a deer to shoot 😆
@@WHOTEEWHO have pull trigger yet see them but. Cant get on them or their not legal point wise do to rescrichion here. Was for see one doe i say sat was a bust only deer seen in are camp other then 6 coming in to camp at night
Mine in 5.56 has a nasty bolt too but man does that thing just keep running. I was stalking a group of hogs out here in Florida. Went into some swamp land and found a hole. Poor girl went straight in the mud with me completely covered. Blew out the bore the best I could but only because the group of hogs I was tracking walked right in my path. Dropped two of them back to back and she didn't hang up or complain one time.
Very entertaining video, LOL!!! "Let's do some precision, here." LOL
😆😆😆
I love my Ruger American Ranch 350 legend
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
Ive got a Ruger Ranch Rifle in 223rem, and it has the same problem, the 4th round hangs up on the chamber. It stopped doing it when I switched to pmags.
Looks great
Hey Chris
It would be my choice in 350 but can't do it. The reason is that when carrying by a sling, the protruding mag would constantly poke you in the back. Where I go is hilly terrain and need to use a sling. Probably going with an Axis 2 that has a flush mag.
Just wondering is it had to cycle the bolt an press bolt release while it’s on safety
??
well what was the cause of it jamming ? and did you get it to sight in?
What scope would you recommend for the 350 legend? Deer hunting
I am a big fan of zerotech scopes. At 350 legend distances you'd be okay with just about anything
I just got a ruger american 350 legend, nice rifle. Also has sticky bolt. Do you think it will correct with shooting? I've noticed small orange shavings from magazine ??
Trim some coils off the mag spring. It has too much tension and jams the bolt up
@@Freakingstang the bolt without clip in will catch slightly but not bad. I think i found the main prob when loading rounds, front egde of brass catches on front of mag. I will try to send pic but i'm not good with tech stuff. Hope you get this message.
@@Freakingstang i cant figure out how to send pic. You can feel and see prob when you remove shells from mag with your thumb.
Damn, isn’t that your 3rd new rifle this week? Haha j/k. Truly awesome videos. Keep em coming.
I wish
I highly recommend attending a Project Appleseed clinic. I have been shooting for decades, and I went with the hope of learning something. I am so glad I went, I know I am a better shooter because of it. To anyone who wants some cheap instruction, and a good weekend of shooting, check out an event in your area. You will lean everything from sight adjustment, to breathing and trigger control.
Nice looking RUGER I really like the Americans line for the money hard to beat. Thanks again for all the work you do for us to enjoy. God bless Who Tee Who and family. Stay safe and good hunting
I have the Savage Axis 2 in 350 Legend. Shoots great but the rim of the last round in the mag tends to catch on the front of the mag. some slight filing on the front of the mag should fix that. I see the recoil as being in between 223 an 243. I love shooting it.
Should I get the Ruger American Ranch or the Axis 2 for deer hunting in Michigan?
A buddy and I both bought 350’s this year and we had Winchester 150gr and Hornadys. Believe it or not, the Winchester grouped better than the Hornady.
I just filmed a grouping test video with 11 types of ammo. Video out soon
Looked like the Remington 770 bolt somehow got in that Ruger!
Good one. 😆
I'm curious if your bolt ever smoothed out over time?
Nope
@@WHOTEEWHO I figured out why mine is hanging up. There is an indentation (manufactured defect) in the bolt. Specifically in the grove that is supposed to slide past the bolt release. I plan to call Ruger C.S. to see if I can get it replaced. Wish me luck!
DO YOUR THING BRO
350 Legend on an AR Platform is an awesome rifle.
Absolutely
love the video, what scope ring mount are you using?
r
Sonicking
Is the 350 a long range cartridge or is it a bush bullet?
Shorter range
@@WHOTEEWHO thanks man. Stacking up rounds against my 1952 marlin waffle top 30-30 i’m picking up monday.
Without the hat he looks like a young Steve McQueen
A good friend just purchased a 350 Legend...came with a 3 round mag (sits flush with the "belly" of the rifle). After EVERY shot, the rear of the mag has to be pushed back up, or it won't cycle.
Any other owners having this same issue???
You can never go wrong with a deer hunting video!!! (unless the deer don't show up)...
🦌🦌🦌
Where can you find the detachable magazine kit for the Ruger American rifles? I have looked everywhere and can only find a expensive aftermarket one.
Win 145 Fmj hand made hollow points ballistics?
Love Ruger American rifle. I have one in 450 bushmaster great gun. One of my favorite gun in my safe.
This video is hilarious
😆😆😆👍👍
Who_tee_who u should do a 17wsm video or the triple barrel 12ga
👍👍
Have same 350L ranch as u. 180gr win power point wasn't great. Any suggestions? Seemed to like 147 win fmj. Need hunting round
Mine likes 180 gr. Federal. I have several ammo test videos uploaded showing it
@@WHOTEEWHO thanks
I would like a hunting video. Is there anything you can do with the bolt? To make it smoother. I have a Ruger American Rifle in 308 win. Love it. I have shot 2 deer, one at 200 and the other at 50 yds. Neither of them moved.
I hunted 4 times last week. Filmed every time. I only post hunting when I get something
Bore sighter sure seemed to help alot, I've yet to use mine
all of them are great guns
Awesome gun I have one like that in 300 blackout and love it
Awesome
Use white poster board with an orange stick on dot. It works especially well when sighting in a rifle. A 6 inch dot works well. Use orange duct tape to cover the holes in the dot. White on the holes on the white poster board. Target can be used several times when you tape the holes.
I buy poster board for .50 a piece at a dollar store. Most sporting good stores have the orange
dots in various sizes. I suspect Midway has them also.
