didn't get much response to my previous post about 3 different calibers, so thought I'd ask about each seperate...

just picked up an unfired 70's - 80's Remington 700 in 35 Whelen to add to my bolt action library... it currently wears iron sights... as my eyes are getting old, I was looking at mounting a Burris 2-7 scope on it... looking to find some loads that take advantage of the bore difference over the '06 ( bullets over 220 grains ) thinking this would make a nice black bear rifle...

you guys got any bullet / powder combos you'd like to share ???
