Just before I had my Whelen built I had a tough time deciding between it and the 338-06. Looking at the data it seemed the 210 Partition did not get that much more speed than the 200 gr. Partition out of my 30-06's. What I really wanted was bore diameter and round nose bullets for close and medium range hog and elk hunting, the 35 W delivered but now RN bullets are not all that easy to come by but the Hornady and Speer 250 gr. bullets have yet to fail me. Those two at 2400 fps are good for just about any use.
