The .375 Whelen for cast bullets is slightly less work than the .400. You can't just expand '06 brass up to .400. You have to expand the case up to really straight and then neck down to .400. Unless you are going hunting with the rifle, the .375 is the better cartridge. FWIW.
Why would you introduce logic into this kind of discussion?!? Heck, logically he should just spin another 06 barrel in and call it done. Or 35 Whelen if he can find store bought ammunition.
If it were me, that 400 Whelen or Brown/Scovill would be tempting. But I already have a 405 WCF and that is all I need.
