Yep.
Some folks try to make more outta Steelys Quick Replys; oft times its all there already....
FWIW Swift makes a 280 A-Frame and Woodleigh makes 310 softs and solids for a properly twisted Whelen. If a bullet need be bigger than a 225 TSX in NA, I can't see going up in weight and one caliber to make anything deader; A 250 Partition doesn't seem to have any mystic over it, but its a grand bullet as well. Pick one and know its path.
It was designed as a "cheaper" big bore for heavy game and DG in NA, much like the 9.3 was for use in Africa.
I'm still in the Whelen camp, even though some Africa regular will prolly tell me a .423 kills better than a .416...
Time to build that 375 Whelen; it must have it all over the 30-06. 338-6, 35 and 9.3......but I'm skeptical.
