So it is legal in the Michigan Limited Firearm Deer Zone.

I like the idea. Who's chambering rifles for it, aside from Winchester?

Moleman has shared some experience with a similar wildcat cartridge.

Hey I forgot to put this years deer hunting results in that thread. The winchester cartridge and mine are very similar including performance. Still waiting the see what the actual bullet dia is, the PTG 350 Legend reamer print says it's a 9mm, and there is at least one interview from shot show saying it's ".355", but the Winchester site is showing it as .357". The base diameter is close to .391" so it's going to need it's own set of dies and if the bullets really are 9mm that really limits what is out there for reloading.

I just posted in your other thread. As soon as I heard of this cartridge on another site I immediately thought of your old thread. It looks to be nearly the same concept.

Any twist specs to be had? I see the 265gr Sub load they offer. Assuming a 1:16 like my 77/357. Interested in AR15 bolt/barrel combos too.

I would bet on someone coming out with an AR upper soon.

Unless Winchester is planning a new line of heavy wt 9mm bullets my guess is it will be a ,358 cal. You could then shoot 357cal pistol bullets in it and for heavy sub sonic loads like the 265gr mentioned the rifle bullets already in existence for the 350 Whelen or 35 Rem would work. IMO

Looks like an American version of the 9x39. Also, I wonder if 9mm pistol cans can handle this round?
