#HuntingCartridge

This new offering from Savage Arms in partnership with Winchester Ammunition is set to revolutionize hunting for straight-walled hunters across the country. The Savage rifles chambered in 400 Legend, will feature over a dozen models, and the cartridge itself boasts hard-hitting, yet mildly recoiling capabilities that promise to open up new opportunities for hunters in states where these cartridges are popular for legal reasons. Straight-walled cartridges have gained popularity for their performance in recent years, and the 400 Legend offers 100% more energy than a 12-gauge slug with 55% less felt recoil, making it an excellent choice for hunters in states like Ohio and Michigan. The 400 Legend is set to launch in 14 options, including the 110 Apex Hunter XP, 110 Hog Hunter, and Axis II XP, in time for the fall hunting season.

Remington Ammunition has released a new hunting cartridge at SHOT Show 2023 – the 360 Buckhammer (360 BHMR). It’s a .358 caliber straight-walled cartridge created by necking up and blowing out the .30-30 Winchester case. The 360 BHMR is advertised as being better than the .30-30 Win in terms of muzzle velocity, retained energy, drop and recoil. Being a rimmed cartridge, the 360 Buckhammer is perfect for lever action rifles, and Henry Repeating Arms has already launched three side gate lever guns as well as a single-shot rifle chambered in this cartridge.
