Would I take a big five on with a 35 Whelen?, no way!, with a 9.3x62 yes, yes!
Why not? I'm not thinking anything out there is going to notice .008" in bullet diameter.
Lack of experience shows. Cape Buffalo take a lot of killing. Try killing an elephant with a 35 Whelen. Bullet construction and penetration matter. Not many solids for a 35 cal being made.
