Re: Why has the 35 Whelen never caught on?

The limited market success of medium bores is a direct reflection of the limited oportunities for hunting and shooting suffered by many. If you have little chance to hunt any game above 300lbs. you gain little from the larger bore. If you can barely shoot enough to handle a .25 something a .35 something is not the way to go.

A certain market exist for big boomers for simply the experience or for braging rites. These milder mediums do not satisfy this "need".

The .33s-38s non or small (.350RM) magnums have and will always only occupy a niche of serious hunters and rifle loons. They will,however, continue to do it all a little bit better than either bigger or smaller, and I will continue to use mostly such rounds.

Unless blinded by these Hitlary images!
