[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 1753221, member: 75779"] I've shot about 250 rounds through my AR /350 L. The bulk of it has been my reloads. 140ftx, 158 xtp-deepcurl, 180 Speer, 180 fury, 200 ftx have all been tested extensively. The cartridge has better balance of power to recoil ratio than the 450 BM. Most handloads are 1.5-1 MOA. Observations: the 180s penetrate and shoot will, but are slow 2050-2100 for the accuracy node. 158s shoot great but don't feed reliably. The 140 is a solid MOA and are fast with lil gun powder 2485 fps. The 200 shoots the best, but I'm only getting 1950 fps, which concerns me about expansion. The 180s completely penetrated a 24" box layered with junk mail at 100 meters. The 158s made it 17". The main issue with the 350 is the throat. Winchester didn't make it to match the 357 max, which leads to resizing bullets down to 356. I'm having the throat redone after the Michigan deer season. Side note: Hornady just released a 165 ftx .355 diameter. I'd kill for a 160 partition in a .357 diameter. [/QUOTE]
