I just got (yesterday) a 350 legend upper from Bear Creek Arsenal. I won't have a chance to get out to the range, so I'll be sticking with the Savage 220 this year.
You're gonna need glasses...The gun in my hand.
Is 350 simular to 223 but workimg around that bottle neck law?I just got (yesterday) a 350 legend upper from Bear Creek Arsenal. I won't have a chance to get out to the range, so I'll be sticking with the Savage 220 this year.

Better read the rifle regs!High point carbine in 10mm..
Im unaware of any rifle reg that using it violates. It's straight walled so legal in shotgun counties, the caliber is easily powerful enough to kill a white tail so what am I missing?Better read the rifle regs!
Unless it's changed rifles we're held to a 1200ft lb minimum for deer. 223 can be a challenge but it's doable.Im unaware of any rifle reg that using it violates. It's straight walled so legal in shotgun counties, the caliber is easily powerful enough to kill a white tail so what am I missing?
Yep - current regs are 1200 ft lbs for rifle and 700 ft lbs for handgun. Not that a deer would notice the difference.Unless it's changed rifles we're held to a 1200ft lb minimum for deer. 223 can be a challenge but it's doable.

It does not meet the 1200 ft/lb energy requirement for rifles --see the discussion in the Airgun section---I had long conversation with DNR guy about this very subject. Of course it is powerful enough- as would be a .357 or .45 levergun--it is just not legal ---would be legal from a pistol probably at 700 ft/lb---dumb regulation in my opinion--it may change in a year or 2 (or 3). I have Ruger Pc Carbine in .40s&w that I would like to use too. Like I said -read the section of the Hunting Guide that appliesIm unaware of any rifle reg that using it violates.

700 fpe from a 6 inch barrel pistol should be easy with a 10mm. 1200 fpe from the carbine is doubtful. If serious better have your proof ready.Yep - current regs are 1200 ft lbs for rifle and 700 ft lbs for handgun. Not that a deer would notice the difference.
Have to push a 200 grain at 1250 fps for a pistol, and 1650 fps for the rifle. I can push a 170 that fast in a handgun in a 41 mag, but a 10 is < 41 mag.700 fpe from a 6 inch barrel pistol should be easy with a 10mm. 1200 fpe from the carbine is doubtful. If serious better have your proof ready.
