I am starting to build a 35 whelan on a budget.
It won't cost you even one dime to learn how to spell Whelen properly...
Anyway, i've hammered a fewmoose ect..with 350 Rem. mags and they are the same difference to a Whelen. They do work pretty good, it's just at that time, i was crawling around in the bush after brown bearsand from my test the .338-06 would out penetrate the 35's... So i went with the .338-06 instead..
These days with NP's available in 35 cal., that may change things a bit??
