    I recently picked up a CVA Scout chambered in 35 Whelen and grabbed three boxes of factory ammo. Barnes TTSX 180 grain.. Hornady Super Formance 200 grain.. and Remington 200 grain..
    I put 11 rounds through the barrel.. two shots to sight it in at 50 yards and moved it to 100 yards to see which brand shot the best!
    At any rate.. I'll be reloading for the 35 Whelen next month.. once I get 50 empty cases :)

      @@blackie1of4 I never had one, listened to the complaints of seating bullets excessively deep for action legnth and went straight to Whelen back in '85. About 2000 I picked up a 358 Norma Magnum as my "Big Lady" 250's at almost 2900 fps gets the job done!!!

      @@cw2a I never had an issue with mine.. I used 225 Nosler Partition bullets. It was my dedicated black bear rifle.. I did harvest a big bodied five point with it.
      That buck is to this day the widest spread deer that I've harvested. It was 19 and 1/2 inches inside!!!
      It was bigger than my brothers 10 point.. that he shot on the same day.

      @@blackie1of4 The 35's sure lay down the animals. I have taken deer and bear with 243,264, 284, 308, 323, 358, 400, 410, 452, 458 & 500. After 300 they jut seem ta die quicker.

      Thanks brother.. I did watch some of your videos.. and I agree with everything that you said :)
      I still have to get a 35 Remington.. I believe Ruger/Marlin will produce one shortly after the stainless 336 30-30 Winchester start hitting the shelf's next month!
      Fingers crossed
