Just bought a Ruger number 1 in .35 Whelen off of gunbroker, one of 250 made for Lipseys. I always wanted a #1 and .35 Whelen is my favorite caliber, I had my eye on these rifles since the limited run was made. They were not to be had for less than $1000, at least that I saw. I saw this gem on gunbroker new with Leupold for $850.00. I simply could not resist, I am only a man and no match for such temptation. Smile

JACKPOT!! I will give you $875 for it Laughing Congrats on a good purchase. I hope you love it. Why you like the .35 Whelen so much?

I really like the .35 calibers, have a .35 Remington, a .358 Win and this will be my third .35 Whelen. They get the job done. I handload 250 grain Nosler Partitions in the Whelen to 2550 FPS out of 22 inch barrel, close to .338 Win Mag Ballistics (Remington lists the 250gr 338 as 2660 FPS out of a 24" tube) with larger frontal area, shorter barrel, and less propellant burned. I have not tried any 180 grain loads but I understand it is not hard to exceed 3000 FPS, or 225 Nosler Accubonds at 2700 FPS. Have had nothing but great results with the Whelen.
