458 SOCOM
You'll be able to use magazines you already have and brass cost is not an issue as you won't need more than a hundred or so rounds (no one could shoot that many). Start looking into muzzle brakes now....

I have put together 223 wylde ,300 blackout , 450 bushmaster and 458 socom and added a 350 legend as used brass was cheap and loaded winchester was not expensive either , then I had to get a 50 beowulf .
If you like the idea of the 350 legend go for it , always build the others later . I bought my first a bushmaster a long time ago , before remington bought them , bought some lowers after that and put them together , as the years go by more seem to accumulate .
Then you have to buy dies and brass , magazines for some to feed better , red dots for the pistols , scopes for the long barrels , assorted sights and red dots and scopes for the rest , Oh did I mention I hate switching uppers , so bolts charging handles and more lowers .
Always seem to have more parts showing up , buying parts is sometimes a throw of the dice , Have got some that needed a little machining to fit right , will not be ordering any more parts from that supplier , I think your first idea with the 350 legend is a good choice for off the shelf and cheaper then the bigger choices .
