Poor old 35 Whelen eh!, you either love it or hate it, but I would say the only real difference between this & the 9.3x62 in the field is the factory loads it comes in. This is not to denigrate the 9.3 in anyway at all before its adherents leap down my throat, but a 35W with such bullets as 280gr Swift A-frames & 310 grain Woodleighs at respectable velocities is going to cut the mustard which ever way you look at it. Double Tap load the Woodleighs SN & FMJ (at special request) to 2300fps, at this speed & with that wonderful SD they would penetrate beautifully methinks.

Hell they even look the part.
