You have two rifles available. One is a 6.5 running a 140 gr. bullet.
The other is a .35 Whelen using a 250 gr bullet of exactly the same construction as the 6.5
Pick your winner.

I don't carry a rifle for a specific situation , I carry it because I want to hunt with it .
If I un into a scenario where something might be " better" I don't fret about it if I am confident that I can make the kill with what I have in my hands .
