Some might say that a heroic name like “Legend” needs to be earned. Okay, but American cartridge nomenclature is a mess, and I’d prefer a simple title to an alpha-numeric soup that confuses us with existing cartridges. Also, there is major historic precedence to whimsical names for cartridges, as in “Creedmoor,” “Hornet” and “Zipper.” Upon introduction, Winchester’s .350 Legend was hardly legendary, but its name will never be confused with anything else.
