Out of Nosler's online data, which I assume is their most recent, I am seeing the following.
338-06 200 grain 2690, 35 whelen 2918
225 grain 2595, 35 whelen 2805
250 grain 2424, 35 whelen 2637
Again, the 338-06 has a 24" barrel, the 35 whelen a 26" barrel. (which is a bit "odd" in itself)
What one can do in the game fields, the other can also.
I cannot (off the top of my head) think of another cartridge case where the larger caliber of the same bullet weight, at the same pressure, has less velocity.
All interesting points and either would make a heck of a moose rifle!
