First, the rifle, 35 whelen AI with 26" tube.

My stepfather gave it to me, he used 225 game kings in it. I am almost out of them and need new bullets before my hunt July 10 hunt.

what are the opinions of you that have used on game both the Game King and the triple shock x bullet by barnes? There is a huge difference in cost. I have heard that the game king fails on larger game or if it hits heavy bone.

any other good 225g bullets? (I have some 250g. speers in the cabinet too that I might do a moderate level load for if I can make time between now and then).

Thanks everyone.

i use the 225 ganeking for deer and it is great, i'd probably go nosler for an elk or moose but the sierra bullet really works on deer..

Dago Red,

What game are you hunting and what are the expected ranges?

The 225 gr Nosler Partition is pretty much the standard at the moment for an all purpose bullet.
