Plains Game Bullet Choice 35 Whelen & 25 Ackley

[quandary]

I am in the process of booking a PG hunt in Namibia in May of '27, Kudu and Eland will be on the list. While this is long range planing as difficult as it is to find some bullets I thought it best to start acquiring now for load development. My plan is to take my 35 Whelen and my my 25-06 Ackley. In the Whelen I don't have a know load as I just put this rifle together. However it shoots the 225 SGKs extremely well. In the 25 Ackley my load is 133EHs at 3,250fps.

What bullets would you suggest I test in my load development for each the Whelen and the Ackley?

I had good luck with the 225 grain Barnes TSX on plains game with my 35 Whelen
