North Fork Bullets

[Bob Nelson 35Whelen]

Brilliant was think of trying some for buff only. But will see what the extra cost is.

@Sideshow
Don't be a Scrooge mate. The projectile is the cheap part of the trip. If you load up 20 and only use two shots you still have enough ammo for nine more hunts.
Use them, save money, logical.

If'n a 300gn out of a 375 at 2,500fps is fine for buff at 50-100 yards, How would a 310gn Woodleigh RNSP or FN solid at 2,455fps out of a 35 Whelen perform on them. They have the same SD as a 350gn 375.

I suspect it would kill a buffalo dead. But what's the point of the discussion since in most places in Africa the .35 Whelen isn't legal to hunt buffalo with?

@Puddle
Sounds more like a muddle puddle than conflicted.
Why not use North Forks in both.
Saves confusion

I prefer heavy-for-caliber bullets on buff and Swift offers the 300 grain A-Frame in 9.3mm.
I've put in a request to North Fork to do the same, but until then ...

Oh, and if you want a real muddle, how about Hornady offering a 300 grain DGS, but no equivalent DGX in 9.3mm ???

Go for it @Bob Nelson 35Whelen . Just make sure your PH approves and it's legal (and most likely on private property) in that province.
