Bingo Pard, that's exactly where I am coming from, ha. I guess few people ever play around with the old heavy round nose anymore, but I like to. I shot my last hog (a Eurasian up on the U.P.) with a 35 Whelen AI and a 310gr Woodleigh, at 30yds no less, ha. It worked perfectly. smile I also like to use the other end of the spectrum...I like the light monos in any rifle caliber too. I've had people ask me why I used the 185 XLC/338WM (dating myself) on elk, why not just use a 300WM? Because...:)
