Mauser98If you were to do a search in the 'Your Favorite Loads' section of this forum using .35 Whelen as the key phrase, I'll bet you would find dozens of suggested loads.
For myself, I like RL15 with 225 and 250 gr bullets. With this powder I can achieve 2700 fps and 2600 fps respectively with ease.
