Sir Bob,
After reading your blog on the .35 Whelen Traditions Outfitter,

I finally succumbed to a CVA Scout of same caliber.

It too seems to be a quality piece, great for the price.
I will follow your work on the .35 Whelen with great interest.

I pulled out a tote of .358 bullets from a shelf in the garage, about 50 pounds of these:
300-gr Barnes Original RNSP
275-gr Barnes Original SpSP
250-gr Nosler, Swift, Hornady, Speer
225-gr Nosler
200-gr Barnes X & Sierra "Pro-Hunter"

Some are near perfect BC match for the 404-gr/.458 Shock Hammer, about 0.420.
Good for training aiming memory.
All are good for just flat-out huntin' anything they are legal for.
