.357 mag vs 35 Remington

[JEBar]

I just checked a Nosler manual and found that they offer 200, 225, & 250 gr bullets in .358 diameter .... they include load data for :

358 Winchester
350 Remington Mag
35 Whelen
358 Norma Mag
358 Shooting Times Alaskan

but the do not offer load data for 35 Remington .... I didn't expect that

The Nosler .358 bullets are built for faster rifles than the 35 rem.
Also there is the tube mag situation.

The SC has the 20" barrel with the 2/3 length mag tube and the capped fore end instead of the fore arm band and full length mag tube. Capped is usually a little more accurate so it seems.

I prefer the forearm capped aesthetic but my 336c is the only 35rem I've ever seen in the wild out here.

makes sense .... I wasn't aware that all 35's have tube magazines ... info appreciated

Most are, my sil's grandfather has a Rem. 600 bolt action that isn't.
I think the original 35, which was a semi auto and I think they also have a magazine.

The old Remington pumps had the spiraled tube to keep the rounds from being bullet against primer. NCG and some members here probably remember the Remington Model 14 and the Model 141. There is a Speer .358 180 flat nose and also a Speer 220 gr. shaped like the 180 you can use in levers. Get over that weight and expansion may be none at all on exit. I did a little test on bullets firing off the primers and I will post on it one day. But I will tell you now it didn't fire a single primer off. I passed up a Savage pump in 35 and now I wish I would have grabbed it up.

I remember the Model 14's but had forgotten about the spiral magazine tube

I've used 158 .357 mag bullets in my 35rem.
I've also thought about using a Hornady 358 200gr RN for my .357 mag.
It would have to be a 38sp to cycle, a 357mag case has to be seated past the ojive to cycle.

Here are mine, the two Marlins '60 Sears model 45 JC Higgins, and a '75 RC that I had cut to 16.5".

Yep, seethroughs, look here I have never missed a deer with that thing.

I've got see thru scope mounts on my Marlin Camp 9. They're very practical.
