Re: Why has the 35 Whelen never caught on?

Hi

Has anyone had any experience with the new Woodleigh 250 grain Protected Points in their Whelen?

I notice that the BC of these 250 grain projectiles has gone to 0.400 from 0.300 in the traditional round nose weld cores, by my calculation this is worth over 5cm or 2 inches at 300 yards if you begin with a MV of 2562 fps. It also appears to improve the terminal velocity from 1768 fps to 1950 fps for free. This could makes for far more consistant cross gulley shooting on sambar and reds!

Any thoughts?


Regards
