[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 1833241, member: 48043"] the Whelen sucks on 200's... that's a pretty unfair comparison. You really need to look at 250's at 2400 fps or so for the whelen to shine. My normal Whelen load is the 220 speer fn running 2700 fps. I've got some 259 monos (boat tail) from a member that work well... I haven't really worked this rifle over to see what I can get out of 250's though as I already have other rifles shooting heavies.. 2 300rums running 225's, a 338 running 225'5 and 250's, and a 375h&h running either 285's or 300's.
