It is official. The recently adopted deer rule changes have been approved by the Attorney General and Governor so they will be effective for 2012. Included is allowing rifle cartridges with case lengths up to 1.800 inches.
The .358 Hoosier, a center firecartridge that will be legal in rifles for deer hunting in 2012
• 2650 ft/sec with 180 grain bullets; 2525 ft/sec with 200 grain bullets
• Ballistics (velocity, energy, and trajectory) much superior to the .35 Remington
• Ballistics approx. equal to factory .358 Winchester and slightly less than the currently legal .358 WSSM wildcat
If the .358 Hoosier is superior to the .35 Remington and equal to the .358 Winchester. WHY doesn't the State of Indiana make the available .35 Remington or .358 Win legal??? Sounds LAME to me! :rolleyes:
