Woodleigh reloading manual, what outlet/would carry that book, I am interested in purchasing one, do you know if the website sells manuals, thank you. I need loading data on 310 grain projectiles out of a 35 Whelen. custom Mauser.

Best source for all things 35 Whelan would be @Bob Nelson 35Whelen
He should be waking up in an hour or 2.

Thanks for sending me in the right direction. I’m still trying to navigate this site I’m really green here, but I’ve been reloading for over 40 years just picked up loading 35 Whelen Cheers.
My good friend Bob is the guru for 35 Whelen and is a wealth of information.

I’m hoping to pick his brain just a thought I don’t think it’s crazy but 9.3x62 loading data for a 300 grain projectile, may work at starting loads. The case capacity is almost identical, and the cal .35 vs 36 is to. thank you. Cheers I appreciate all the input.Tony

I don't recall any threads with 310 grain info. I'll send Bob a text to let him know to get on here. His audience awaits.

He may be a couple of days replying. He told me he was going to New Zealand for a hunt.

'Loaded up some 300 gr Barnes Original SPs (very similar) years back w/ my .338-06. Ty Herring at Barnes was nice enough to dig up data (very similar to the below, but I did manage to squeeze 2,440 fps out with one load I'll have to look up. Below are for 35W.

I tried hunting in New Zealand outside of Auckland pretty please you have to be a Tara or chamois thanks for your persistence. I’ve got some old reloading books from the 1950s 60s and 70s coming first edition Nosler gold hard bound pretty cool

I seem to recall Woodleigh selling their own manuals online so you can give that a whirl, but 'have to imagine the shipping would be high....Often online booksellers can get 'em slightly used too.

Percision reloading has 5 lb kegs or Reloder 17
Planning is coming together! Just waiting to hear back from a couple outfitters to see what their availability is for this year, if any, and I'll be booking my first African hunt. Fingers crossed I can get one slotted for late August/first couple weeks of September.

Hi, I was wondering where you lived. I am near Auburn. Are the loaded Norma AFrames factory ammunition? Thanks, Richard
