Default RE: new manufactured 35 Whelen

Thanks for the info
I currently own a Savage 110 in 30/06, so the option to do the swap barrel thing with the Midway Adams & Bennet barrels is open to me. Midway currently has the 35 Whelen in the kit combo (barrel, wrench and go-no-go gauges for $175). I haven't seen the 338/06 in this combo, but they do have the barrels.
I'm considering this. I also have a 8mm/06 so don't really need the 30/06 also...they are pretty darn close to each other in performance, except for wide range of bullets available...but pretty close.
Building one would be fun....but I'll probably have to go the other route (convert the Savage) to save $$$$$.
I'm just trying to get a handle on the costs of each project before I get too excited about anything.
Thanks
