Just got done loading up some w/w pc cast 200grn from the Lee mould in 35 whelen, but just 2000fps fireformers. 2750 fps is screaming, maybe I'll try that next!

bpatterson84 I just checked your load out in my Quick Load program and it looks good. almost 2600 fps out of an 18.5 inch barrel. How does it kick? I'm thinking of trying it in my Rem 600. I might drop it to 55.7 grns of IMR4895 to match my lighter 200 gr ttsx load velocities of 2436 fps.

This country has gone to hell but now there is hope for us.
I just casted up some out of the same mold in 50/50 today. I’ll have to get some ladder tests loaded up for my whelen. I’d be excited for a fist sized exit and instant drop out of a whitetail. I’m curious if you crimped your load.
