A fantastic round, my favorite on the AR platform. Slick as butter feeding, and a grand hunting rifle for any distance you truly have business shooting. Think of it as a rimless .357 Maximum (only smaller .355/9mm bullets), or perhaps a grande size .35 cal. Version of the .30 Carbine. Truly is a reincarnation of my beloved .351 WSL.

The cheap 145 gr. FMJ is only $12 per 20. Our LGS is very well stocked with all kinds of ammo and primers too. Maybe Southern folks are more chill than those Kalif. Transplants out in AZ. Or perhaps we all stocked up long ago...

People are driving in from cities now to buy what they can find. Talked to one this morning that drove over an hour to buy one box of 9mm Ammo.

biggest lead mine the last year he was in. So now a lot of the lead in our ammo comes from out of country and costs twice as much.

before this is all over. If the chips should hit the fan where are you going to get the 350 Legend? And if it comes down to defending your family, who is going to have time to reload?
And the folks buying guns and ammo here are Arizona people, people we know. California people can't buy any guns, period, by their law. I would bet that 98% of the folks buying guns and ammo are Arizona folks. And they are buying with thoughts of protecting their family should things go south. Who are you going to protect with a couple of boxes of a gimmick round?
