Anybody here is hunting with the little fat Remington? I own now a Remington 673 in this caliber and I want to use it for boars and red stag. I plan to use the 225grs Woodleigh, which is a very short bullet. At this time I am playing with 225grs A-Frame (very expensive, not very precise) and 225grs Nosler Part., which I have shortenend by filing off the lead tip, so I can save two millimeters of cartridge length. I have mounted the new Leupold VX III 1,5-6x32 with heavy Duplex. I used a older VaryXIII in the old, short form on a R93 with great succes. | ||

I bought a 34 Whelen years ago and my father who is 65 and has a sensative shoulder due to arthritis likes the 200 grain bullets. Balistically they are the same. I would try some flat pointed Hawk bullets in 225 grains. The 350 Remington 673 is a really neat rifle. I have been on a Blaser kick for a while, but I want one of these rifles, before Remington decides they don't like making them anymore. | |||

I've recently pick up a Ruger in 350 RM, for some reason I've always liked the shorter cartridges. Haven't shot it yet, but I like to see some of the older cartridges sticking around rather than being pushed off by the "new" stuff | |||

Can I get the Haek-bullets in Germany? | |||

I have worked with a .350 RM quite a bit. I would shoot the 225 grain Trohy Bonded bullets out of it or Swft A frames. For lighter game I would opt for the Hornaday Interlock Aleko Hits count, misses don't | |||

I used a Remington 700 in .350 Rem Mag in Africa on my first trip with good results on plains game (warthog, blesbok, zebra, kudu, blue wildebeest, gemsbok). If I placed the bullet properly the animal went down quickly. I loaded the 225-grain Nosler Partition to 2500 fps and it was accurate. I tested Swift A-Frames and Trophy Bonded Bear Claws in the same weight and they weren't as accurate in my rifle, plus showed pressure signs (flattened primers, hard bolt lift), so I stopped further testing and fell back on the tried and true Partitions. --- Eric Ching "The pen is mightier than the sword...except in a swordfight." | |||

Well, anything you can do with a Whelen you can do with the Rem. For that matter, it isn't all that far behind the hallowed 9.3x62 so again, anything you can do with a 9.3 . . . Personally, I find those rifles silly and the cartridge even more so. I mean, a belt on a cartridge that has square shoulders? Whatinhell for? However, it's what it delivers downrange that counts and it certainly delivers. Sarge Holland's .375: One Planet, One Rifle . . . for one hundred years! | |||
