35 Whelen is back at the house.
« on: June 23, 2010, 03:40:32 PM »
They say that the 3rd time is charm. I hope this is a true statement. Got her back this afternoon (3rd time ). Gonna go to the range early in the AM. 100 degree heat here, but I gotta try it out. Will give everyone an update tomorrow on this continuing saga of my 35W.
   Now that I think about it, the 3rd marriage didn't work either. ;) ;D

I keep hoping someone with 35 Whelen troubles will report on unfired cartridge headspace, using a Wilson gauge, for example.

The cartridge is very problematic.
