Looking forward to the .45-70 drop tests, should prove educational.
I absolutely fell in love with my 350 Legend right after the first shot!
The mild recoil is definitely a selling point for those of us that do not have straight wall restrictions.
Living and hunting all my life in Pennsylvania.. most the deer are shot within 75 yards.
The 350 will knock the snot out of the biggest buck in the woods inside 100 yards. This past season I downed a big bodied pennsylvania eight point and my brother's nephew downed a huge 10 point with his.
We both were using Federal 180 grains. Complete pass through double lung shot. A blind person could follow the blood trail.. but unnecessary due to both deer falling within thirty yards of the shots.
Thanks for sharing this brother 😊
I'm sold on that bullet that you were using in this video. It worked for me very well this [almost] past deer season here in Southeastern Michigan, in the restricted firearm [formerly shotgun] zone. 200 yards is the absolute max that I will attempt to take a deer with, with the 350 Legend. I would say that trying to go past that would border on being irresponsible sportsmanship, just my opinion of course. For where I hunt the 350 is perfect; far preferable over a shotgun slug or the hassle of dealing with a muzzleloader. I know many would disagree with me. That's fine. It is great to have options for all of our different preferences. Thanks for the video. I enjoy your material very much. Keep up the great work. God bless.
You are a ethical hunter and I agree 100%. Past 200 yards the energy is just not there. Might hit one farther but as hunters we should make sure we have a humane kill on our game. I’m glad they built that round for you folks up there so you don’t have to use shotguns and muzzleloaders.
I'm in southeast Michigan as well gonna pick myself up a 350 here real soon
I use an 18 1/2 in barreled .350 Legend for white tails (due to state regulations on hunting cartridges) and with this Winchester 180 grain load, I have consistently flatlined white tails on the spot, every where between 15 and 100 yards, with no need for adjusting where I aim at these ranges. Zeroed at 100 yards, I get the same shot groups at the range as shown in this video, between 50 and 100 yards, with 3 shots averaging an inch group at 100 yards.
I have found this set up fairly accurate and lethal out to 160 yards, on white tail, having to hold about 6 inches over at this range, tho I've only had the occasion to make a shot this far twice since hunting with the .350 Legend (technically one shot at 150 yrd and one at 160 yrd, both equally lethal)
With my short barrel length of 18 1/2 inches I'm not sure what kind of accuracy I'd have @200 yards, compared to this video, but now I have an idea and am going to have to find a 200 yrd range to try it out at.
I agree, the Winchester 180 gr shoots consistently in my 18" AR upper. I find similar results to others, very flat shooting between 50yd and 100 yd. I also found the Herter's 180 gr perform the same for me with no discernable difference - in fact, I would guess they are probably produced by same manufacturer or use same if not very similar powder, bullet, and primers.
@@rwsmith7 I've never seen those. Are they priced comparably to the Winchesters?
It's a great short range hunting cartridge. Outstanding out to 100 yards. Pretty good out to 150 yards. It goes down hill fast after that. Most hunters in the eastern half of the US will normally shoot less than 150 yards though. I would compare the 350 Legend to a 30-30. Many deer have been killed with a 30-30. If you need to shoot past 150 yards, you should probably go with a cartridge that has more powder capacity. This is a fun little carbine type cartridge with low recoil. It'll work in a single shot, bolt action, or AR-15.
I love the legend I would say 75% of my shots are within 100yrds and I can use it for primitive instead of a muzzleloader and for rifle so I only need 1 gun for the whole year
Love the regularity of the nightly premiers as I know exactly what time to be here or if I need to catch it later if I can't be here. Thanks WTW for all the videos and work that you put into the channel.
Opening weekend now. Took 1 at 112 yds and another at 70 yds. Both dropped in their tracks.. I love the caliber as I’m an old man and not into recoil
Man I can't even find a deer to shoot
It's more about where you shoot em' than what you shoot em' with, isn't it.
I found factory loads to be really anemic for the 350 legend I have a 170 GRN Hornady interlock with 27 GRN of Lil Gun shooting at 2320 FPS average. 300 FPS faster than the 180 GRN load. Over 2000 ft-lbs of energy. It still drops 8 inches at 200 yards. Thank you for the bullet drop videos!
8 inches at 200 is what, 2-4 clicks on the scope. How is that even a thing.
Was pretty cool seeing the 350 actually punch the target at 200 yards (where I saw it) in 1 frame you have the bullet in 1 frame and a hole the next.
Love 350, I was not getting much drop at all from 100 to 50, kinda scratching my head on it. Now I ain't worried about it. Thanks WTW.
I appreciate the comparison. With the 350 Legend maybe sighting in at 150 yards makes sense in order to minimize apparent drop.
I'd really love to see one of these drop tests on a 9mm carbine.
That is crazy how much it drops at longer ranges. It's really nice to have an idea of what can be considered "long" ranges for different calibers.
It's fatter than 30 cal. That's why it loses speed faster. But if you load it right, you can still get less than 6 inches of drop at 200 yards.
The cartridge is designed to drop like a rock after 200 yards, so it won’t hit the houses on the other side of the field/woodlot you’re hunting in. It’s really designed to be a 150 yard and in round. If you use it for that, you’re perfectly fine.
It’s not a long range round, but it drops hogs like a rock at 150 yards. A friend shooting a 5.56 was hitting them, but they would run quite a ways. Every time I pulled the trigger, a hog got knocked down, and didn’t make it more than 10 yards if they even got up.
Same reason I got a 350. 150 to 175 yards range. I would use a 6.8 spec II or 6.5 Grendel out to 250.
what you described is exactly what normally happens between those two rounds....one bullet is small and fast, one is large and slow, one has pointed tip one has blunt tip.....easy conclusion.
@@lrlapua8035 I guess you have never seen a 350 Legend round. They are pointed. It’s not a 30-30. The 350 is simply a straight wall cartridge since some states require that to hunt.
@@adamr9215 LOL....yes I have seen a 350 (wannabe) Legend.....not a pointed bullet like a 5.56, 2 different bullets...
@@lrlapua8035 Of course they are different bullets, you are talking about a .22 caliber vs a .35 caliber. But, 350 Legend are pointed.
I love these bullet drop video's, here in Jersey we can only use shotgun's legally, but you've revved up my motor to hurry up and get out to Arizona or Texas. I can do the math and read the boxes, but I love the gun's. That Howa is gorgeous! I really want to do handgun hunting, I did it once in Pennsylvania and got myself a very nice Doe. I also want to hunt with my Henry's or when Marlin comes back, I'm sure Ruger will bring them back to their glory day's. About a week ago I heard the CEO of Ruger say they are looking at a release date around the end of December. You have gotten me into other rifle's instead of a lever action. Have a great night! Sincerely Ruger Rich
Great video. Been waiting to see a video like this. I had my 350 Ruger American now for 3 years now. I have mine sighted in about 1 1/2” high at a 100 yards. I consider it a good 200 yard gun. Yes it’s no 7mm but by far better than any foster deer slug or sabot shotgun slug I’ve found when hunting deer in Iowa.
I mentioned this on the 7.62x39 bullet drop video and 350 Legend has similar drop; Zero at 150 yards, then you can dead hold up to 200 yards and hit the deer. Just like Winchester prints on their box.
No, typical 7.62x39 drops considerably less. It has higher BC (0.24-0.28) and higher MV (2350-2400 ft/s)
@@imeprezime1285 Did you read the box for Deer Season XP? 2325 fps & 0.223 BC. Similar to 7.62x39.
@@JohnHabbinga Never heard of it. That's not a typical 7.62x39 mm then
@@imeprezime1285 Winchester 350 Legend Deer Season XP. The drop is similar enough to 7.62x39 out to 200 yards. So either caliber, zero at 150 yards, then you can hold your scope’s crosshairs on the target and you will hit within a minute of deer.
@@JohnHabbinga Ah sorry, I thought you refered to 7.62×39. There is variety of 7.62x39 ammo on the market. I even saw bullets with pretty round nose in that caliber (probably for hunting purposes)
This series has been great. Nice visual demonstration! Keep them coming!
Great info WTW. I got my 350 Legend pacifically to hunt deer at ranges of 60 to 100 yards, which is about my average shot where I hunt. I just felt it would make a good brush gun. I am so ready for deer season and cant wait to hit the woods this year.
Are u pacifically in the Pacific region
@@thesouthernlife4061 😂😂😂
To be lethal and humane with the ballistics, the 350 legend shouldn’t be shot past 230-240 at deer
Look and see what game has been taken with the .357 bulldog air gun , unmodified. Out of the box it makes around 176fpe max. Of course your shots have to be taken at reasonable distances, but one on the ground , is one on the ground with a good shot placement.
I'd say realistically, up to 125-150 yards to stay in the desired energy window.
@@Hill_Billy_Without_A_Hill I agree depends on the specific load, I’m using the 160 grain federal fusion and minimum terminal velocity on it is 1600 FPS which will get me to about 240, but that’s the best factory loading for 350 legend currently in BC
Thank you sir, that was exactly what I was looking for! My 350 Legend (Ruger American of course 😀 ) is still fairly new, but I've not had a chance to stretch it to 200 yards yet. Really really good information on how relatively flat that was between 50 and 100 yards, and then how far it dropped at the 200. Most of my hunting is limited to 50-100 metres visibility owing to bush and terrain, so good to know I've got both easily covered 👍
Great content as always.
Appreciate you watching
I bought mine to deal with coyote out to 150 and take deer inside of 100. It's perfect and at 80 cents per round, it's cheaper to shoot than 44 mag, and has twice the energy.
This is my favorite hog & deer gun by far (from TX). All the shots are within 150 yds, .35 caliber slams ‘em down, light to carry (ar15 platform vs ar10), and recoil is same as a 223/556. Love it.
Hey Adam
They drop like a brick after 200 yards I didn’t think it would be that much , great video Mate keep em coming thank you , Aussie Steve .
Have you ever done this with a 30-30? That would be interesting to we “Old” asses. That’s all I used hunting in Florida my whole life. Thanks bro...."
@@jasonbroom7147 pointed loads
Actually the old .30 drops less. My Marlin 336 with 20” barrel with 170 gr sierra pro hunters and 35.5 gr of Leverevolution powder will do 2270 fps with 100 zero only 7.5” drop at 200 yards. The 160 gr Hornady FTX only drops about 5” - 6” at 200 and still packs around 1300 FPE at 200
I love this caliber and this series of videos you've got going on now! Keep up the great work
Common sense says 200 yards should be the maximum range, same with the 30-30, of course the 35Rem, 358 Winchester, are better at retaining killing energy at longer ranges.
I still feel that the 350 Legend has a place in the field, young and old, for those who can’t take the recoil, for many, many years, my wife’s go to big game critter getter was a Marlin, 444, she shot the 444 very well, killed several deer, but she’s not young anymore, and she’s getting shoulder issues.
This summer I bought her a 350 Legend upper, she loves it, almost no recoil, and no more complaints about a sore shoulder, I haven’t started to Handload yet, it’s coming!
thanks for the video. i'm handloading 9mm pistol bullets for roughly 100 yd in hunting setups here in illinois rolling farm ground...woods and fencerow shots mostly. might see a deer at 200, but they aren't likely to hold very still in gun season with the rut going and getting blasted at. if you can't get rested up pretty good, even a 243 or such isn't going produce ethical shots much past a 100 yds and i'm probably a better distance shooter than the average deerhunter. once made a 160 yd or so 20 guage rifled barrel/scoped up shot on a basket rack, but had a really good grouping h&r ultra heavy barrel and a fencepost for a rest..may still have been luck! thanks again for down to earth shooting/hunting videos!!
A 350 legend lever action rifle would be my go to deer rifle, it'd be the perfect rifle for hunting the back woods of the Appalachian mountains here in Kentucky, we rarely get a good clear shot over 200yds, unless shooting from mountain top to mountain top and that's just dangerous IMO
I'm waiting on one too man. Lol they gotta make one for us soon
I just got me a 350 and I am impressed with it my Gun thanks about this video
Your dreams have come true. Remington just released the 360 buck hammer just for lever gun's! Cheer's
I love my .350 legend. I’ve had good results with the 150 grain.
I've got a howa in .308 and one in 6.5 creed. Both sub .75 moa easy. Absolutely love em! Chasing black bear with the .308 this weekend and chasin deer with the 6.5 in a couple weeks
Rainbow colored stock for a cartridge that delivers a rainbow trajectory.
Very interesting caliber WTW. It did better than I thought! Thanks for sharing brother!🤘🏽
200 yds is the longest shot I'll have where I hunt so I practiced with my hand loads out of my 350L. I was getting pretty close to the same 10" drop
I zeroed my Savage 1110 HB in .350 Legend at 200 yards. 2 1/2 inch groups with Browning 155 grain spitzer. Yesterday I took a doe at 157 yards up hill. One shot, one kill. That was number 7 with that rifle.
Great new “series” on the channel. Would love to see this with all the calibers you own! I’ve been wanting to do this with my 450 BM to see if the 9” drop with 100 yd 0 is generous.
I know your talking about 350, but I have a 450 bushmaster mossberg and I shoot 250 grain Hornady, dropped a deer this year 223 yrds..really love the 450bm
I have said it before, but I swear I want that exact rifle. Scope and all. Not many firearms at all just make me WANT them. Very, very few. A genuine Colt Peacemaker and that rifle right there are 2 on my "someday" bucket list. Great video dude! I am really digging thr 350 Legend cartridge too!
Love that Howa especially the Boyd's stock. Try the 255 gr sub-sonic at 200 yds. That's about a 2 1/2 ft drop but it expands well out to 125 yds. Good group at 200. 👍
Right tool for the right job. Michigan woods, 100 yrds is all I need.
My Son and I hunt with the 350 Legend. I view that rifle as a 150 yard MAX (for me) tool. If i have the expectation of shots any further than that, I'll choose another tool. Now with that said, within its capability that 180gr Winchester round hits a white tail like Thor's Hammer, it knocks em flat. Its very low recoil is a plus as well. Its just easy to shoot and shoot well. They knocked it out of the part with this round IMO. I've always said for Deer hunting at these distances I love a slow moving, fat, heavy bullet. The 350 is no paper puncher but what it is, is a killing machine.
Interesting video as always, and realizing that your camera was actually capturing the projectile hitting the paper at 200 yards was very cool, I backed up the video several times to just watch it happen again and again.
Makes me think that you should put out a couple of milk jugs at 200 and maybe see what kind of energy that 350 still has out there.
Thanks again for your videos.
God Bless, and God Bless the USA
❤️from Canada 🇨🇦
I noticed that also and I could even see the curve of the bullet path.
You could see the rounds sailing into the target on camera. Great video as always!
Thanks for this video. Great information. I just bought a Savage350 and shot a box of bullets through it today. Have it zeroed at 100. 150 yds would be the longest shot I would take. I hunt on my farm in S Iowa. I am switching from a 45/70 - given age and arthritic shoulder I wanted a gun with less recoil. . This 350 is fun to shoot and the flinch I had developed from the 45/70 is gone.
You can see the bullets coming in to the paper at 200y, great video again WTW. Love these type of vids mate
That was pretty cool.
I looked up 350 Legend and.. straight walled case is very similar to .357 from a Marlin or M1 Carbine. I checked .357 from Marlin performance (shot metal target matches to 200 yards) 357 gets 1900 fps on a 158 grain bullet with 14.9 grains of H110 or W296 You can get faster speeds with a 125 grain bullet 357 but it will not knock down a metal target at 200 yards ( I think WHO TEE WHO has some video tests of 357 on concrete blocks .. back a year or so ago)
Love me some 350 man wife and kids took 4 deer with it last yr, curious what you see for drop
Thanks for this. I use that exact round out of my Winchester XPR
Im liking that rifle!! That's a fine looking weapon.
This is the only cartridge Walmart carries, so I had to see the videos on it, might be something to buy, I usually don't shoot hogs past 100yds.
That’s amazing. A 37’ drop at 700yds. With a 100yd zero, you should only have to hold about 2” over the back of a deer to hit the kill zone. I wouldn’t push it no farther than 200yds due to the loss of energy.
Very Good Job. In a similar venue, I have a built Beowulf .50 from my most magnificent gunsmith. Using my reloads 2,000 fps with 2,000 ft lbs of energy (Hornady XTP 350 grain hollow points) at 100 yards. I have "never" seen a more accurate platform at 100 yards. Hole / within / Hole, time after time. Bullet drop from 100 yards to 200 yards is 11.5". Still a good hunter. After 200 yards, you can't kill a gerbil.
I would love to see a 45 colt lever action bullet drop and see what the actual effective range of a 45 colt +P round.
good video bud, I've missed so many live premiers I do watch all though. GREAT VIDEO as ALWAYS!!!!
That's neat how you can see the bullet flying in on the target.
If you adjust for the bullet drop instead of using your 100 yard marker at 200 yards you can fix that drop simple shooting basics the further the target the more you will need to adjust
Good video. My Mossberg Patriot will group just about any 350 ammo under 1.5 MOA , with the exception of the 145 FMJs. Heavier bullets seem to group better though. I can get sub MOA all day with the 180's. It's interesting to see the drop from 100 to 200, but I don't think I'd be reaching for the 350 if I was pretty sure I'd be presented with shots on deer over much 100yrds. I snagged one because the rifle/scope package was $219 on a black Friday deal, and I can use it in Michigan's "limited rifle zone". If it wasn't for the fact I do most of my dear hunting in this zone, I doubt I'd own one. An AR build in 350 Legend would be kind of cool though.
Thanks for another good post! And, you got my vote for the 450 BM demo. I have a Mossberg Patriot in 450 and it shoots a Hornady 250 grain as well as your 350 L at 50 and 100. However, the 395 grain subsonic rounds hit much higher (yes, 15” higher). Scratching my head on this…
My Rem 700 in .308 likes the cheap Winchesters too (150gr)! I recall back when Wally World would sell them $15/box a few years ago. Glad I stocked up a bit back then!
Appreciate the video! I got the American in 350 so have a lighter gun here in Ohio. This is a great video for helping me get started working with it. Finally finding ammo so can start shooting it some!
Another good one my friend.
45-70 would be a good one to show drop.
Really like the 350 legend and your video was excellent. Keepem coming!
Oh man. I have been waiting for some information on this round. Thanks!
Love these vids bro can't wait to see you demonstrate with those 185 grainers 9mm rounds by seismic "highly recommending glock 17 or 19 & or the kel-tech sub 2000" 🙏 can't wait to see more
Hey who tee who I can’t wait for the vid
6.5 Grendel! In the Ruger American Ranch rifle! I want one badly!
Agree, 450 bushmaster next time. 6.8 western and 375 socom if you have it.
The 200yd shots can see the bullets fying (vapor trail I think the name of it is). That's trip
I love my 350 legend the stopping power is phenomenal on hogs and on coyotes at a 100 yd and 150 just love it.
Another thing about 350 Legend, it is the only ammo our Spring Hill TN Wal-Mart has had in stock for a while now other than random .22 from time to time.
I'd say 200 yards is asking a lot from the round on a deer. Yeah probably will kill, but energy is dropping off, and you may end up not finding them. The round is already known for little to no blood trail.
Would have been curious to see the drop from 100 yards to 150 yards. Just got myself a 350 legend, and I was thinking I’d probably be doing most of my shooting at 100 or less, though would love to push the range a little beyond 100 if possible. Wasn’t planning to do much around 200.
Split the difference and you'll be close enough
Awesome video and I love that Boyd’s Stock. I’m thinking about putting one on my Winchester Pre64 in 7mm Mag.
Hey Adam. Great video and I really appreciate the volume of video's that you churn out! I'd be super keen if you could do one of these video's on the 300WSM or the 300 Win Mag (forgive me if you already have). Thanks for sharing bro!
Coming soon
Thank you, I always leave the woods PISSED, because I couldn't connect to my cameras to adjust where they were pointing.
Nice shootin at 200. Was a good lil group!!
Howa rocks
Love my 1500 in the 22-250
Thank you
How about a 25 or 35 yard zero. This should get you
+\- 4 or so inches out to 200. What would those numbers be?
3.5" high at 100 yards will put you 3.5" low at 200 yards. Plenty good enough for deer.
I always sight in at 25 yards, then 50 then 100 to make sure, but on at 25 yards put you in the bullseye, anywhere out to 200, and here in VT in the woods you very rarely get that shot.
@@edeldridge36 Thats awesome. Thank you good sir.
@@leadhead7338Absolutely understand the hunting in the woods. The 350L I will be using this year as a brush gun.
@@billdont2458 seems alot like the 'OL 35 Remington, but that 35 cal round will be a great brush gun, i just went with a Remington 7600 .35 Whelen, and the recoil broke my crosshairs, vortex sent a new one with instructions not to exceed 18 inch pounds, so i tightened it to 18" lbs
and shot her yesterday, got her on at 25 yards, and noticed the new scope is sliding forward through the Weaver rings! i only have 5 shots now and cant find any damn 35 Whelen any wheres! so out comes the 'OL Rem 760 Game Master in .308 ive had sense i was 13, i got here in 2001, and what a gun!
Need a 45-70 video!
FYI the 125s and 150s don't go sub sonic till around 500 or 600 yards
Cool video! Sorry I missed the live!
Sorry I missed your live. But I still gave you thumbs up 👍 . And I really like that 350 legend rifle.
Great videos! I vote for 450 bushmaster next!
Coming soon
Thanks for the video, hopefully my kids will get a deer with it this round this season.
primary arms has a good deal on the 180gr power points. my 16 inch loves that load
Hey hey I have signal at camp!!!! Didnt want to miss this video as the 350 is my latest favorite caliber. Its 5:30 am and Im getting ready to go out…but its raining and this guy doesnt like bow hunting in steady rain. Mist or light is fine…..but not steady. I shoot these same rounds btw….but also the browning polymer tipped ones….which are a bit faster and less drop. But both are accurate as hell in my Ruger american.
Awesome! Good luck to you!
Do 556 bullet drop, it's a popular bullet so a lot of people would want to see it!
So the 350 Legend has zero drop at 700 yards as long as I sight in 444 inches high at 100 yards. I always take the manufacturer’s data with a grain of salt.
I absolutely would love to see one of these vids in .45 colt. I shoot a model 94, and it drops like a Led Zeppelin at 100. I sight it in 6” high at 50yds to get there.
Here in Iowa the 350 legend is good if you don't shoot past 200y. Seems to me if you can handle the thump the 450bm is just flatter and has more authority out to 300y.
I noticed when you shot the 200 yard group I could see the bullets on the video.
Just went and confirmed zero after scope adjustment. My savage likes the 180 grain booolots more than the 150s. Ready for Kansas whitetail
Pre-rut.
Being a hunter in Indiana, the 350 really appeals to me. But that drop though... I may stick to my encore pistol in 7mm-08.
Have enjoyed the drop series.
Appreciate you watching
I missed alot over last 5 days . I will get to all. Love the Howa thanks WTW
The Winchester 150 grain is very accurate at 100 yards. Shooting it out of a 10.5" AR pistol setup. Most rounds are touching or very close.
My guy, the bullet drop vidyas are the $h!t!!!!
Keep em’ coming!
I loved my 350 legend so much I just ordered a ar-15 upper in 350 legend
Look up the ballistics for the 145 grain, and the 124 grain Winchester 350 Legend. I think you will be surprised how much faster it can go. faster is flatter.
I’m curious about 300 Blackout bullet drop!
And that is the reason they allow it in states that were shotgun only before along with other straight wall case loads like 450 bushmaster and 50 beowolf
