This is sort of handgun related, so I felt this was the best pace to post. The only longarms Indiana allows for deer hunting are shotguns and muzzleloaders. They are proposing to allow rifles that shoot certain pistol rounds. The rounds must have a minimum bullet diameter of .357" and the case must fall between 1.16" and 1.625".

My question is: What rounds would fit the above criteria?

.357mag
.44mag
.45colt
.454casull
.480ruger
.44spl--but just barely the right length
.445supermag
.357max
.41mag

and some others.

You can add the 475 Linebaugh, the 500 Linebaugh (1.4 and 1.6).

Thanks, guys. I've also found out that the .458 SOCOM fits the bill at 1.575".

The commentary about the proposed amendment mentioned pistol calibers, but the actual wording just says that the rifle must be chambered in a round that meets the above-posted measurements. Good thing, as I've never seen a .458 SOCOM handgun.

Hey, that is why we have T/C Contender pistols.

One more not yet mentioned is the 45 Winchester Magnum.  I am giving a lot of thought of converting an old (previously sporterized) 95 Mauser into a carbine chambered for this round.

Also check the older chamberings like .44-40, .38-40, and others.  There is also .50ae.

Think of it as the 'handgun and lever-action carbine hunting bill'

WTF is it with stupid crazy laws... Just allow any rifle caliber larger than .22Mag, and any pistol caliber 9mm and above, and be done with it...
