Barnett is kicking off 2026 with a host of introductions, including a new crossbow in one of its most popular families, as well as a whole new crossbow series.
Between the 400 Legend and .450 Bushmaster, which is the better choice for the hunter? We do a deep dive and look at the pros and cons of each cartridge.
Winchester’s new 400 Legend is a streamlined, mid-sized straight-wall cartridge intended to fill the gap between its wildly popular 350 Legend and the notorious 450 Bushmaster. It is—in our opinion—a masterstroke of genius.
The 400 Legend takes the 350 Legend concept a step further, giving hunters a straight-walled cartridge fully suitable for both bolt-action rifles as well as the AR platform, conforming to the collective statutes set forth by a number of Midwestern states.
During the 2023 NRA Annual Meeting, Winchester debuted its 400 Legend cartridge in its Power Point line, as a beefier straight wall alternative to its flagship 350 Legend.
