Hello,
I have acquired a .35 Whelan A.I. along with bullets and a 3 die set for reloading. I have .250 grain bullets for it, and a large amount of Accurate 2700 and Vit 140. Seems to me these powders should be the correct burning rate for the 22 inch barrel of this rifle. I tried to use my Quikload and find it only has 225 grain bullets as a maximum weight. Since I have both round nose and spitzer bullets in this weight, I want to use both them and these powders for this rifle. I would appreciate some experienced help so that I do not ruin this old rifle that has been in the family since 1956, although unfortunately no loading data was ever saved for its usage.
Thank you in advance.
