I tested this load at 3.370” COAL, which is very long, but this rifle has the typical very long Remington throat. Groups are tight. Recoil is brisk.

Speer's latest rifle data (https://www.speer.com/reloading/rifle-data.html) has loads that bring the 35 Whelen very close to the 338 Winchester Magnum.

I don't see any Whelen loads.

Scroll down. For some reason, they don't show up in the locator tool but they're in the long index below.
