In the end run it is the straight walled case rules and " commercially mfg Rounds" which is the gottcha part.
REM 357 max was .01 reduced length of Mr Gates 357 cartridge- if memory serves me correctly, the Legend comes along with .01 added back on but in .355 ( .358 pills work just fine in it) As I have not seen a print of the of 30 buck cartridge i can only surmise the above.
Vista Outdoors now owns Remington Ammunition (along with Federal, which is also the parent company for CCI and Speer)
