    I sighted mine in with some handloads I did with 195gr Barnes X for the 45 cal muzzleloader. I got one shot to take out the center of bull at 100. Then next was just slightly 1/2' left and down 3/4" but I kind of rushed it., Next I aimed at one of the corner dots. Tore the center out of the bull again! So I called that good! My scope is Minox 3x9 I got deal on as they were closing out. I am never usually happy with the package scopes.

    Im all set up for the 400. I have had orders with three shops waitingnon a Ruger Predator.
    I have passed on these Savages and Mossbergs. I may end up with a Savage 110 Trail.
    I also passed twice on Ruger Ranch Models. I simply want a longer barrel.
    Its been ten months...
    I have ammo, Brass, Dies and even bullet Molds ta make my own bullets... But No Ruger Predator Rifle...

      Nothing wrong with having two guns in the 400

    I shot mine the other day for the first time exact setup as yours and it did the same thing. Not so sure about being bore sighted

    I’m a recent resident of Ohio, moving from West Virginia last year in September. I don’t have a straight wall cartridge rifle, just an inline muzzleloader right now.
    I really want a lever gun, but they are expensive. So a bolt gun in either 350 Legend, 400 Legend, 450 BM would be more in my price range. I would like to get a left hand 400 Legend, but they currently only have one ammo available and it’s not as available as the 350 Legend in most stores.

    • @whatyaknowjoe67
      @whatyaknowjoe67  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It’s a new cartridge. The 450 was the same when it first came out. Give it some time and more options will become available.

    • @TheWVgoodguy22

      @ yeah it’s only been out for 2 years. I was even looking at reloading options for it and nothing there yet.

    Looks good to go in straight wall states. I had a 350 and 450 at one time but my state doesnt have those regs. So went back to 223 remington. 🎉🎉 let the naysayers fuss. 223 is plenty for whitetail. And no meat wasted. I hate that. We can use any rifle here. 🎉🎉

      Nice…I always thought a 243 would be good as well for deer

    I would like to get one these, but I don't have high hopes for the 400 Legend because it's barely a whisper in the hunting world and barely any reviews on it and only one brand of ammo out and it's been out for a year at least

    • @whatyaknowjoe67
      @whatyaknowjoe67  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Same thing when the 450 came out…I expect this caliber to explode and exceed 350 sales

      It's actually only been available for a handful of months. There's actually lots of buzz online lately. I think this is going to be a really popular round in straightwall states.

    How is the recoil compared with a .30-.30?

    • @whatyaknowjoe67
      @whatyaknowjoe67  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Probably a little more but it really is not bad at all.

    With the 350 Legend so popular, there is no reason for the 400 Legend. It is an answer in search of a question.

    • @whatyaknowjoe67
      @whatyaknowjoe67  หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Lot of folks are saying that the 350 is a little light….of course shot placement is most important. The 450 is very popular…nothing wrong with something though that has similar ballistics with less recoil.

    • @mpd2056
      @mpd2056 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The 400 is a good compromise for those that think the 350 is too light and the 450 is too heavy. The first new cartridge to come along that fills a gap that actually exists.

      @PassivePortfolios หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@mpd2056 Regardless of what "they" think, the 350 Legend duplicates the 30-30, with a bit less range, so it works very well on deer. The sales tell the story.

    Almost three times the cost per round as 308. Yea, sure, that’s “budget”.

      You can’t shoot a 308 deer hunting in shotgun zone areas…lot of places are allowing these new straight walled cartridges.

      @@whatyaknowjoe67 correct so just use a shotgun. or a ml and save a small fortune on a gimmick gun that doesn't do anything the other two dont! these new cartridge's might have a place but a (budget) isn't one of them!

      You will not find an equivalent shotgun scope combo cheaper. And these new rifle rounds shoot much flatter.
