[QUOTE="Margonme, post: 1396531, member: 25776"] js1234, don't know your age but when I was very young, I read a lot of Colonel Townsend Whelen's writing. The 35 Whelen is a 30-06 necked up to receive a .358 diameter bullet which Col. Whelen invented. I was the benefactor of a family friend that was a gunsmith. George Sweeney. He was a marksman who won many bench rest medals at Camp Perry. He built a 35 Whelen on a Winchester M70 action. At the time, you had to fire form your own brass from 30-06. Another couple of great writers was Elmer Keith and of course maybe the greatest of all time, Jack O'Conner. If I ever need anything bigger than .375 H&H, I would probably consider one of the .416 calibers, most likely the Remington Magnum. [/QUOTE]
