I built a 35 whelen last year. I bought a used SS rem 700 action and ordered a SS remage barrel from mcgowen. Dropped it in a McMillan stock and added a timney trigger. I put a vortex lh razor 1.5-8x32 on it. I load 225gn partitions using rl15. I put it together all by myself and it didn't blow up in my face. I am quite happy with it. I considered building a 350 rem mag but even reloading, they are pricey to shoot.
