Thsnk youThere has been some debate about the 350 legend over bore size. It seems different manufacturers are making it in different sizes. I would start by finding exactly what your manufacturer sized the bore in. Some use standard pills that you would use in .357mag some .001-.002 over

The article that I had read in American Rifleman (Sept 2019 issue) about this cartridge said that they pulled some bullets from factory ammo and found them to be .355" in diameter instead of .357".

I was going to build one but after much research I decided to hold off until they unify a standard.. some as you said are .355, some .357 and I think some bigger. Do you happen to know for sure what yours is?

Sorry, I do not have one of these. Was just repeating what the article had said, think the article also mentioned that specification was .357 with a -.003 tolerance.
