G350.1-0.3 is a small-diameter radio source whose complex morphology left it unclassified for years. Recent XMM observations make it clear that this is a young, bright ejecta-dominated SNR with an associated compact object. X-ray spectra reveal spatial variations in the ejecta abundances and ionization states, but the XMM resolution is insufficient to probe the emission on scales that are most relevant for investigating the ejecta structure. The poorly-measured position of the compact object also results in multiple candidate IR counterparts. We propose a Chandra observation of G350.1-0.3 to provide spectra of the ejecta on small spatial scales, to search for nonthermal filaments that are generally produced in young SNRs, and to obtain a high-precision position for the compact object.
