I have a 35 Whelen with a 1-14 twist barrel. It shoots 250 grain and 200 grain bullets fantastic,but 225 grain bullets not so well. Anyone else have this problem?
The reason I ask is my dad gave me a box of 225 grain Partitions,and I would like to try and get them to shoot well for an upcoming elk hunt. I know I can shoot the 250 grains ,but he wants to go with me and went out of his way to buy the Noslers for me. Just so you know the 250's ,shoot to just under an inch at 100 yards and the 225's about 3 inches at the same yardage. I know I could probably slide a different bullet past him,but hey its my dad. Thanks
