Go shoot a 220 grain in a 30-06 before you get a 35 Whelen.... or borrow someone’s, that way you’ll find out how much you like it.
the 358 win did well for me.
I prefer .358 Winchester or .356 Winchester because those can be had in more handy rifles. Don't worry, the 9.2x62 guys will be along shortly to tell you how wonderful and recoil-free this caliber is.
