With J E S Reboring! I sent him a 30-06 High Wall to report to 35 Whelen. I went with a 5 groove 10 twist. I installed a 2X10X42 scope yesterday and sighted it in today. Using Barnes 180 grain TTSX factory loads the rifle shot 3/4 MOA at 200 yards.
This is the first rebore that I've ever done and I am very pleased

20" twist? Is that correct or a typo? Kudos on the rebore. I have heard nothing but praise for JES.

That’s a good weight for a .35.
Here elk, here elk!
Legal in those Southern states with the crazy Primitive Weapons regs too.
Pics, when you get the chance.
What fresh Hell is this?
