High Noon, you shuda been watching the classified here.

just bought an FN actioned 35 Whelen with a fantastic figured stock for less than a very basic 700.

it was a great deal, wish it had been a 9.3x62 but too good to pass up.

you've been an excellent poster and I only have one question left. Why are you so hung up on the whelen when the 9.3 is superior by any measure ?

good luck !
