I have decided that when I can save up the pennies, I am going to invest in a Nosler Outfitter. I have a 7mm08 and a 7mm WSM, but nothing bigger. I have been eyeing the Outfitter rifle, and I want it, just dont know if I want a '06 or 35 Whelen. If I could, I would have both...
It will be used for hunting hogs, deer, and hopefully bear and other big critters. I plan on using factory Nosler ammo, 180AB's in the '06 or the 225 AB's in the Whelen. The data on the factory loads show that they are almost ballistically the same.
Given the choice, and not being able to reload yet, would you choose a '06 or Whelen?
