    35 Whelen or 9.3x62 and why?

    I got a 35 Whelen just because I always wanted one. I like that I can make brass in one easy step, and it works fine. I don't have the larger game in my area but if was available wouldn't feel under gunned. It can be downloaded to a 35 Rem velocity level or cranked up to not far behind say a...

    First Ever Bear (Contains Some Graphic Content)

    The Sperr 220gr HC has been discontinued. I used a Fury 35 cal 220gr couple years ago in my Whelen and it worked fine on a 7pt WV whitetail. Got good groups with it. They come 50 to a bag. Might check them out if you want to stay with that style and bullet weight.

    Primed Brass

    I see primed brass for sale on different sites at times. It's perfectly legal to ship. As stated just might cost more due to your location.

    Weatherby Camelia Wilderness 7-08 Rem

    Jim, try those 120gr BT when you find some. They're deer getters also.

    What cartridges have you used on Big game?

    Hey Preacher, how did the 30 Carbine perform on game like a deer maybe? Reason asking, when I was a kid knew couple of guys that had them and used for deer hunting but don't recall them getting a deer with it. Weren't very many deer around these parts back then.

    Cataracts

    I have them also but they keep telling me they're not ready. Almost begged them last year at my appointment. Friend described the lens selection as good, better and best. Not able to relate but according to him his insurance only paid so much, and he paid out of pocket the balance for the best...

    22 cal. 60 gr Solid Base

    That is a fine bullet that will work well in your rifles after finding the load. I wouldn't hesitate to put one thru the ribs of a deer. Good around bullet. I used to use the 55gr version of same bullet in a 222 Rem for turkeys and such and it did well. Have a box of the 50gr I'll play with in...

One floated and action bedded with one inch under the barrel. One I bought for my son was like this. All different but each does...
