Myself I see the 350 L as a hit ... If I just recently hadn't purchased a Ruger Ranch carbine in 7.62x39 , I would be looking more seriously at the 350 L in the same package ... and if it turns out to be a true .357 dia .. I may splurge !
I talked with a Hornady engineer and he says the 170 grain spire point bullet for the 350 L is .355 diameter. It was also posted on another forum that a gentleman had talked with Hornady and he too was told it .355 diameter.
I also called Federal Ammo and talked with a technician and Federal is using .357 bullets in both the Power Pak and Fusion ammo they are making for the 350 L.
I haven't seen any information on what diameter bullet Winchester is using in their hunting ammunition.
It will be interesting when someone actually pulles a bullet from each one of these shells and measures them and posts their findings.
