Hi Heeze:

I just want to make sure you aren't confusing the .35 Whelen and the .35 Remington. The Whelen is a .30-06 case necked up to .35, it offers '-06 ballistics with more punch. The .35 Rem with a 220 gr bullet can be loaded to about 1,850 fps with 36 gr of IMR 4064. The Whelen will propela 225 gr bullet at 2,600 fps using55 grof the same powder. 750 fps and almost 20 gr of additional propellant is a pretty significant difference!

The combination above gives over 3,500 ft/lbs at the muzzle andalmost 2,600 at 200 yds in the Whelen.Three inches high at 100 yds leavesyou five inches low at 300 yards. The .35 Remington matches the ballistics you describe, not the Whelen.

Good luck,
CE
