Ok, it's me.
After a full day (11am to 5pm) of shooting, the 35 whelen really was pounding on me at the end of the day.
As many of you know I have a Marlin XL-7 I rebarreled to 35 whelen.
Fully loaded and with scope it wt's a scant 8 lbs.
I sized some Win 30-06 brass to 35 cal
WLR primers
41.5gr of IMR 4895
Lyman 358009 280gr WC WW's
sized to .358 with gator checks and speed green
OAL 3.050
Wind was blowing 35 mph coming directly from behind me.
I didn't wt or sort any of these boolits. I guess I should have.
oh well, I'll call it good.
this is 10 shots.
that's a cluster of 5 shots in the middle
