[QUOTE="greenejc, post: 1857067, member: 60453"] Sometimes its just getting more performance out of your rifle while retaining the same barrel length/weight. Sometimes its curiosity. I didn't need another .35 Whelen, but I'm having one made anyway. It has a 26 inch 1 in 14 inch twist barrel from ER Shaw, a stock and trigger guard/detachable magazine from Magtech, and a P2 Shepherd scope in leupold rings mounted on it. The rifle shoots around 0.5 to 0.7 inch 5 shot groups at 100 yards. We tested it yesterday. My gunsmith is blueing it now. I'm thinking about getting each of the Whelens Ackley Improved next, just to minimize brass stretching. Of course, it would increase powder capacity a little, and that won't hurt. [/QUOTE]
