The .35 Whelen caliber, developed in the 1920s by Colonel Townsend Whelen, offers powerful medium-to-big game performance. The Model 111's 4+1 capacity provides sufficient firepower without compromising on the firearm's size or weight. The barrel and action, unoriginal to this piece, were replaced by the previous owner with new parts from SharpShootersSupply, upgrading the rifle from its original .25-06 to .35 Whelen. The Bell & Carlson black webbed composite Monte-Carlo stock, aluminium block bedded and free-floating, further adds to the superiority of this firearm.
In excellent condition, with only faint signs of prior use, this rifle shows minor surface scratches on the barrel and receiver, with no other visible imperfections. The bore is in an unfired condition, promising exceptional performance. The package includes a 4 rd magazine, and the firearm is drilled and tapped with Leupold 30mm scope rings.
