How many people have a 35 whelen?

I've been on the lookout for a pre 64 model 70 in 35 whelen for some time with a nice chunk of wood. To this point, I only found 1 that fit the bill, and I kick myself for getting hung up on a few bucks and not pulling the trigger...

I have a Rem 721 in 35 Whelen (Jes Rebore), with a 3X Leupold, about a perfect elk rifle and Ive used it for pg and bear...I also have a .338 and a 9,3x62 all are great....btw comparing a properly loaded 9,3x62 to the Whelen or 338 is like comparing damn to cussing! /the 9,3x62 compares to the 355 H&H,,

I'm so glad to hear you're happy with your 355 H&H. It's a damn underappreciated round, in my experience.

Yeah, I think Townsend @Bob Nelson 35Whelen is working on a .355 Wildcat off a 7.7 Japanese cartridge case in an Arisaka 99 action. He’s calling it the .355 Australian Meteor or .355AM.
