    As you probably know , you can make 35 Whalen brass from cheap , available 30-06 brass .
    Lube the inside of the necks (and outside of the cases)and run them into your 35 W sizing die .
    If you have an “ Improved “ version you’ll have to fire form also .

    270 brass is better...the necks are longer.

    Run the '06 over a .338 expander first and the case mouths will be more even. Tripplebeards, do you make that in one pass or go to .284 then .308?

    I have 115 pcs of Remington brass with correct .35 Whelen headstamp. They have been reloaded (neck sizing only) about 4 times. Also have about 20 pcs necked up from .30-06 GI brass. Will sell it all to you for $25 shipped by USPS Priority.
    Dies have already been sold-sorry

    thanks
