A 400 Whelen does sound pretty neat.
Gonna build a little 'pounder' here TC1, mag holds four 9.3-62mm cartridges loaded to 3.330"
Four down and one in the pipe will be a formidable little combo chunkin' five 400 gr Woodleighs.
This will be a fun project.
That does sound like fun. I might have to add the 400 to the list. I'm wanting a short barrel treestand rifle. That Whelen would would be pure hell on Mississippi whitetail.
Damn right Men, if I can safely approach 2150 fps with the 400 gr Woodleigh we already know what their capable of, that matches the ballistics of the famed 450-400 Nitro Express and 404 Jeffery when loaded to factory specs.
"ANY" deer, hog, bear, elk or moose would be in very deep chit inside of 300 yards.
I like 25" barrels on rifles of this type, goes/balances best for me with the 13.75/14" L.O.P's.
