260 Ackley Improved

LOL the 35 whelen neck down to 6.5 is the 6.5-06a square not a bad round at all!! Ackley improved all the better... It's a killer up to a certain practical weight. I'd bring the 338 for kudu eland leopard lion or even Buffalo with 300 grain bullets
@C.W. Richter

And what's wrong with the 35 Whelen for kudu, eland, the big cats and buffalo if allowed. A 250 grain or275 grain at 2,500 to 2700 fps with 4,000fpe is more than enough. Why take the little 338 when you can have a Whelen.
Bob.
