Hornady Issues Recalllede

Hornady Manufacturing Company has issued a recall of sixteen lots of the company’s item #81199, 350 Legend 150-grain SP Hornady Black ammunition. The affected lots were shipped between the dates of Nov. 2, 2023, and Aug. 19, 2024.

Hornady ballisticians have determined that cartridges from lot numbers 3234613, 3241530, 3241634, 3241678, 3241990, 3241991, 3242096, 3242414, 3242590, 3242597, 3242695, 3242868, 3242894, 3243421, 3243705 and 3243974 may exhibit high pressure. Use of this product may result in firearm damage and/or personal injury.

Owners of the affected ammunition need to immediately discontinue its use and to contact Hornady by phoning (800) 338-3220. Any questions regarding this recall will be answered at the time and complete arrangements will be made for the return of the product and full replacement by the company.

The item number is clearly marked on the side of the box (as seen above) and located on the lower left side of the label. The lot number is found on that same label, but on the bottom of the box.

All other Hornady lot numbers or item numbers are not subject to this recall and require no action by the owners. The company apologizes for any inconvenience this safety recall has caused enthusiasts.

The 350 Legend cartridge was introduced in 2019, making it a relative newcomer in the ammo world. As Philip Massaro pointed out in a review only days after it was unveiled, “The new cartridge is a .223 case blown out to have straight walls, making it a perfectly viable choice for those states which require the use of a straight-walled rifle cartridge for deer hunting.”

It has since gained an avid following and nearly every major manufacturer now offers at least one rifle chambered for the cartridge.
