New Lipseys M77 .35 Whelen

I could load heavier but this was specifically made to reach out with an effective load... the 225 AB is about perfect for that.View attachment 586427

I think I see a new flame for Bob..

I have very seriously thought about the same conversion with mine Ruger 77 Express.
Please let us know how it shoots!

She shoots terrific with 250 Partitions, I did the conversion years ago.

Sorry, Bob... that's not going to work for me... what's that they say about "lipstick on a pig?" Plus, you would fit in perfectly with the new modern "men," winning all the women's sporting competitions. Lol.

Font forget, Bobs favorite big game round is the .243 Manbun!

He better get used to THE BIG CARTRIDGES... THE NEW WILCAT 3X12" Ron Jeremy!

i have three .35 whelens, a ruger #1, a remington 700 cdl and a custom J.W. VAN PATTEN ON A 98 MAUSER ACTION. they all shoot very well with sierra 225 gr SBT # 2850 bullets and a healthy dose of varget. a custom 98 mauser built by ted ulmer in 9.3x62, a CZ 550 in 6.5-55 and also a remington 700 classic in 6.5-55 and in a CZ fox fire 2 in .22 hornet. so you can see i don,t realy need any more, but who in the hell here is talking about NEED? for me its all about WANT.

If that is your stable of guns, you are not even close to the point of not needing more

My stuffed old body isn't even good enough for kids events let alone women's sport.
Hell I can't even run far enough to get out of sight on a dark night.

On December 31 2023, I could relate... but I went on a diet January 1st, to get down to the max weight limit for a horseback Montana Elk/mulie hunt... and I am down 30 pounds already! Pretty soon I am going to look good in a dress!!! Lol.

Ok... I ain't the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I can usually figure out how to navigate a forum... all of a sudden the picture icon at the top of my posts is off and I cannot embed a photo in my post. I can still attach a file, but that is awkward for readers necessitating clicking on the file link to see it. Can anyone assist me with getting pictures embedded again? Why is the photo icon turned off at the top of the post window??? If there is already a tutorial on this subject somewhere, I would appreciate being directed to it. Thanks for any help.

Use the 'attach files' at the bottom left.

Yeah, I can do that, but it attaches as a file that has to be clicked on to be viewed... I want to use the picture icon at the top to embed the picture in the post...like I did with the picture of my Ruger Express in the post above. But that option now seems to be disabled for some reason?

After it loads that file but before you post it. You should be able to click "insert" and then "full image".
