I think that with a little work-up and a good, fast powder, we can almost get that to perform as well as the magic 35 Nelson.

And if you simply throw it, it already performs as well as the 243
When I saw that I immediately thought the same, lol. Well said.
Now if you neck that up to a 35 caliber the 35 Whelen will become the new tomato stake :E Rofl: :D Cheers:

@Jörg Krüger
I will stick with my Whelen.
The recoil of that necked to 35 in an 8# rifle would be horrendous and barrel life would be to short. Get it sighted in and work up a load, get a new barrel even before you have shot any game.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
