MtnMike2, I don't shoot the 35 Whelen very much. I would love to: just not enough animals to shoot legally. I had a customized 30-06 Springfield from years back. In 2000 I said I would use it to make a 35 Whelen if I drew a tag. I got the tag and called Brownells to order a barrel the same day. I barreled it up and decided I needed to refinish the stock and reblued the rest since it had a new barrel and refinished stock. Took the nice moose (aboout 41 1/2" spread) with three shots to keep him out of the beaver ponds. Have only used it since then to shoot a few vicious prairie dogs. A fun rifle.
