[QUOTE="35 Whelen, post: 1607851, member: 105990"] I have shot out to just under 400 yards with the Speer 220gr. fp. I have a very good load with the Nosler 225gr. partition that shoots faster and I'm shore flatter but have not had the chance to try past 100 yards at this time. If the conditions are good, the animal standing still, and a good rest I'd do 500 yards, but I don't think I'd ever go past that for hunting. I have read some say the 35 Whelen has all most the same trajectory as the 30-06. I have heard others say the 35 Whelen is only good to 300 yards and that may be so for them, but after shooting it myself I can say it will defiantly go farther than 300. As with any cartridge you just need to spend some time shooting to see were your comfort zone is with it. I think you will love the 35 Whelen. [/QUOTE]
