The 35 whelen is completely underrated by everyone, it is the most awesome non belted cartridge out there,I own one a CVA V2 Scout as well ,great video guys !
Thanks for the video, it was very informative. Considering that I've been trying to develop a 35 Whelen load with a 200gr bullet that would reach 3050 fps (that mystical 4k+ ft/lbs. ME) for some time now, it was humbling to see that it was done and reassuring at the same time to see that it was done. Great job! What really brought a smile was that I hadn't been using the Sierra RN bullets because Sierra says they developed it specifically for the 35 Remington (another favorite of mine) and because the 35 Rem. runs at much lower speeds thought it would disintegrate on an animal at impact with that velocity. What a joke! From your comments, not only had it not disintegrated on a 3/8" STEEL plate, but it went right through! Wow. Thanks again.
@@capncoryspoliticallyincorr2645 Sorry for the tardy reply cap'n. My comment to Last Minuteman was only the 3rd time ever I've ventured into that world, consequently I misunderstood what your, let's say, reply was, because even getting a reply from them was a surprise. When yours was finally opened, the mistake became obvious. Sorry. It's very valuable what you said about the load you've created for 250gr bullets, because after developing a load for 200gr bullets, 220-225gr and 250 gr loads will follow. Is it improper to ask how many grains of what propellent, you are using to get that velocity? Oh, on the light side, when you mention the "wallop" your cartridge packs, are you referring to your shoulder, or the target, be it buffalo or bowling pin. Peace
No problem with the late reply! I will tell the rig that I have/use. I have a 25 1/2" Douglas barrel (1 in 16 twist) in an 03-A3 action bedded in a Boyds stock with a muzzle brake. Don't remember make of the brake but it works! I use Speer HotCor 250gr bullets. As for the charge...powder is CFE223 and I'm at the high end of charge weight. For obvious reasons I can't give you the exact weight though I would approach it very carefully. My rifle handles the pressure very well. Yours may not! You can find some crazy loads for the 35 Whelen in both the latest Sierra and Speer manuals. As far as the wallup goes, the wallup would be on whatever is being shot at! Unless you don't have a muzzle brake. In that case I would contact a good shoulder surgeon before touching it off!😂😂 You are more than welcome to get ahold of me on Facebook messenger and I can give you a bit more info. Just look up Cory Hoopes on Facebook.
I love my 35 Whelen. I have a H&R Handy Rifle with a 22" barrel. I have a load worked up with a 180gr Barnes triple shock & 3005 fps and hitting 1/2" group at 100 yards. SD @ 7fps and ES @ 11. It did take some time to get this load to this point and even had a few case head cracks (due to a few thousands to much shoulder bump) This is a really under rated cartridge and I am excited about it gathering some steam with hunters. It is a kicker for sure, though it is fun to shoot. Thanks for the video!
35 Whelen is No joke. I built a custom 31" rifle on a Savage 110 action, because I read about "frame stretching" on the Encores.. I asked Thompson about it and those babies said "our rifles are built to accept SAAMI spec. ammunition" meaning 58k psi. Real 35 Whelen should be loaded to 63-67k psi. I have a 250gr Speer load that hits 3,000fps+ (5,000 ft. lbs.) with RL17, I won't shoot my steel targets with it. 🤣Thanks for sharing and giving Whelen it's deserved credit. God bless all those that served and risked everything for us.
@Paul-q3m7k Yessir. I use converted Hornady .270 WIN brass, I tested almost every manufacturer and it yields the most at 74.0gr H2O capacity (no need for AI or Brown) and it doesn't have a short neck like 30-06 conversions. I seat long and cram 115% case fill in there with a long drop tube. HBN coated bullets and barrel. The barrel was also cryo-treated. I have a NOE bullet mold that's typically 278gr lead, but yields a 180gr gas checked zinc bullet.. I've gotten that to 3,600fps. Shot through two stacked lawnmower blades, I tried it on a little 1/2" AR500 and it only made a big crater. The zinc is probably at the point of just shattering. It's an amazingly accurate cartridge as well.
Great shoot and impressive velocity. Thanks for the reference to the Memorial Day for those who lost their lives in service to our Country. Folks should go to a cemetery and pay homage to the graves with a small flag planted in the area which represents the War they fought in. God Bless them all!
I believe that the cartridge & caliber are suited for one another! You get a more efficient burn going down the barrel by increasing the bore size.. at least with this case! I picked up a cva v2 scout a few months ago chambered in 35 whelen. I didn't like the noise generated with the muzzle break! So.. I took it off and fired away 😊 Didn't notice a difference in recoil.. so its staying off! Great job guys.. this is an easy cartridge to fall in love with ❤
I have the T/C Encore 15" pistol with a .35whelen barrel its a ball of fun. Also have the 45-70 and 22-250 barrels. The craziest recoil came out of the 400gr buffalo bore 45-70.
The 35 Whelen is quite badass within its range limitations. I like that 200 grain Superformance Hornady load for deer hunting because it hits about like a lightning bolt! It is no joke that my blood trailing skills have been negatively impacted by that cartridge and load because so few deer even take a step after a chest shot! Now, it has a terrible ballistic coefficient and is a relatively looping trajectory beyond about 300 yards, but out to that range it hits like a Mack truck! There is just something about the combination of bullet diameter, relatively low sectional density with 200 grain bullets, and the velocity.
Huge 35 whelen fan here. Ruger m77 with 2.5x10 scope, and 2x remington 7600 pumps. One with 1x5 scope one with peep. All sighted in 3" high at 100 yds. I dont load myself but have used most every brand and weight of ammo available commercially. Regardless of brand and bullet, the kills are INSTANT and emphatic. Not one 2nd shot ever required. Most impressive... huge 6x6 bull elk at 200 yds. nosler accubond 225gr, quartering to shot. Instant kill. Dead before it fell straight down. 55" bull moose.. 120 yds.. broadside. remington corelokt 250 gr. Same results. 180" 9 pt monster buck.. 285lbs field dressed. 150 yds. Broadside Remington corelokt 250 gr. Same results. Bulll moose..100 yds broadside. Barnes 180gr. Same results. Regardless of species or bullet... results are the same. Instant kills. Not even an ear flutter. For my northern Ontario hunting, where weve killed at up to 325 yds, and killed mostly at 50-150, the whelen is an absolute and utter hammer. I good out to 350 with confidence. And i know that anything i wanna kill, regardless of angle, is drawing its last breath as i squeeze the trigger. Period.
What you just described is exactly what got me excited about the 35 Whelen! They are effective and hit with authority; when firing it out of a CVA scout one can feel the pressure all around them. There is no doubt that this is a remarkably effective and powerful cartridge… I’d love to get one in the M77, I’d wager it’s the only rifle a fellow would need for big game hunting in North America, or even Africa, dare I say 😁
Awesome video. I was not familiar and had no idea about 35 Whelen but I will be looking it up in my reloading manuals. Its crazy how hot that thing is. Definitely a poor mans Magnum. Great Video by both of you. Thanks for showing us what 35 Whelen is about. I just stumbled across your channel. New Subscriber for ya! Thanks for your service and God bless America!
Preliminary load testing with Leverevolution, Nosler Accubond 225, loa 3.45”, and using the Speer manual for their 220g, but substituting out MR2000 for Leverevolution and following their same work up gave some surprising results.Recommend for accomplished reloaders who know how to read pressure and rifles that are up to the 60+ thousand pound pressures that are obviously being developed.
I love mine . I had it built 5 years ago and it’s now all I hunt with. 200 grain barns ttsx at 2940 or 225 accubonds at 2850 . It lays the smack down on elk and moose
As fate would have it, 35 cal works extremely well with the springfield case. Lower chamber pressures, bigger slugs, higher velocities. Winner Winner on three fronts with exciting extras! Its like whipcream, sprinkles, nuts, choclate surup AND the cherry!;-p
I saw D Dg’s vid , really enjoyed yours , gotta laugh “ I’ve been shooting this cartridge for years,got mine in 1988 only ever fired the first box of factory to get the brass’ my pet load is 55grs imr 3031 with 225 partition chugging along at 2680fps !
My dad had a scout last year for deer season he loved it so much he got one built from a old remington 700 reciver... its beautiful! We are working on getting stuff together to start reloading.... his old scout with factory loads we were dropping deer out to 400 yards.. its pretty impressive
I really hope you start loading for it. I have a ball with 200-250gr hard cast @ 1800-1900 and 180 Speer flat points. The 180' designed for 35rem are explosive in the Whelen for critters n cast are cheap plinkers. My 98 is not finicky with powder either, very forgiving. Have fun!!
I hunted with a 30-06 for all my life, about 15 or so yrs ago Mississippi allowed the 35 for muzzle loader season, i bought a handi rifle and got to work, i now use the cva, its a man for sure Haven't looked back
@@nookymonster1you'd have to consult Mississippi department of wildlife for that answer, but any rifle 35 caliber or larger breech loading is allowed, may be because of the deer population 🤷♂️
The first time I shot my 35 Whelen through my chronograph I had placed it to close to my bench. I had to put it back together after I picked it up off the ground. My hunting load uses a 225 grain Sierra Gameking boattail bullet pushed by 56.5 grains of 4064 powder and produces an average muzzle velocity of 2816 fps. I have a number of loading manuals and finding load data is sketchy. It varies through out my books and bullet weights aren't always covered in all books. I had a CVA Scout II which had a wonderful trigger but the rifle had excessive head space and had to be sent back. They couldn't come up with another 35 Whelen to send me so I had to buy another brand. A Lipsey's Ruger #1. I'd love to find a Remington 7600 in 35 Whelen.
@@lastminuteman Yes I have. That's how I know the velocity of my load. I just did a bunch of shooting at the range the other day. I tried some light 200 grain bullets but I still like the 225 grain bullets. After I got my first 35 Whelen I got rid of all my magnum rifles which were a .338 mag., a 7mm mag. and a 300 win mag.
My 257 Weatherby with 115 grain Weatherby factory loads will shoot through 3/8ths ar500 steel targets at 110 yards. I was not really thrilled about it either!
The best way to talk anything in to giving up and just laying down and saying,,,I quit ,,,is to show it one of those boo lots ,,,guys this thing is a one shot dumping machine.

I think your right bigger gun for safety. But the object of the game is what is the 35 Whelen capable of. Lots of hunters have them and can't afford a 338. I have a 338 Winchester magnum love the round. But all and all it can't shoot through that AR-500 steel plate but the 35 Whelen did. It's the only round we have had go through that target that's pretty awesome I think. Thanks for watching and your comments friend.

Anything that’s out there currently is used or new old stock…
You will need to purchase a receiver, and then the furniture you want to go with the barrel you want…
Thompson Center is basically A Barbie doll for men lol
I'd gel test those flex tips. Those are designed for 35rem. They might disintegrate at those velocities.

Thankfully it has and I appreciate all the input
Why do I see the 35 Whelen in a 😊😊 single shot so often?
@@nookymonster1 it’s difficult to find them in a bolt action, no new productions that I’m aware of
Because they fulfill the "primitive" rifle category of several states without giving up a flat trajectory.

IMR 4064 is the powder for this caliber. Try it!!

I think your right bigger gun for safety. But the object of the game is what is the 35 Whelen capable of. Lots of hunters have them and can't afford a 338. I have a 338 Winchester magnum love the round. But all and all it can't shoot through that AR-500 steel plate but the 35 Whelen did. It's the only round we have had go through that target that's pretty awesome I think. Thanks for watching and your comments friend.
Incredibly silly
