Looking for a 35 Whelen in a kimber Montana type rifle. Can be custom. Looking to stay on the light side Are you a righty or left handed guy?

I’ve taken Elk and Moose here in Colorado with my 35 Whelens.
Love that caliber and my rifles.
I’ve only used factory ammo; Nosler Custom 250 gr. NP, and Federal Premium 225 gr. TBBC.

Hey Matt - I have a Kimber Montana in 270 win built on the 8400 action. I live in Iowa and thought it would make an awesome 35 Whelen. Let me know if you are interested!

I have a pre-64 parts rifle, that is a pre-64 action with an after market barrel that looks like it has good rifling. The stock is quite ugly! I bought a different stock here at the fire and it’s uglier.
Shoots ok, feeds ok except 357/38 pistol bullets will not always feed.
I bought this as a 35 Brown Whelen and had the barrel set back and re-chambered.
I’m selling this for $600 shipped. I am wanting a 700 35 Whelen and this one is going to go.
I’m thinking of painting the stock to hide the ugliness.

I prefer classic.

I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

There is still tons of deer drives in Iowa. We drive them in Lansing Iowa from sun up to sun down..I carried my 7600 35 Whelen. I had a herd run by me 15-20 of them and I can tell you having a std duplex scope was no ideal. I am switching to a Trijicon for next year.

That’s a good deal. Isn’t a single Kimber Montana on gunbroker right now.

I'd love to be able to say these words!

Wisconsin years back had shotgun only counties.ln 2013 they legalized rifles statewide and nothing changed as far as shooting accident go.There were lots of 870 Rems with slug barrels for sale.
we are all flawed,some way more than others.
