Re: Boddington on the .35 Whelen

For the record. I have a .35 Winchester, which is essentially a .35 Whelen flanged!




A great old round. What rifle? Winchester model 95? I used to see 95s at gun shows in the early 90s at GREAT prices. Both 35 Winchesters & 405's. wish I had picked one up then. The prices are WAY up now.

For some reason I have always loved the 35 caliber. I have a MArlin 336 in 35 Remington. yu daughter uses this one more than me. As stated previously I have 2 35 whelens......they are my favorite. Easy to load & when they hit home game just DROPS. Bang/Flops are the norm. I want to build a mannlicher style full stock rifle in 358 winchester. With a 20" barrel. Would be a great woods gun. I just need to find a suitable left hand action. I'd love to find some more left hand zastava mausers. I have also toyed with the idea of a 358 Norms. I have an extra M70 in 300 win mag that would be the donor rifle for that one.
