Ammo Land Review

Post by Shakey Jake » Fri Oct 18, 2019 8:58 pm

This popped up in my Google feed this morning:

May be of interest to some that haven't already seen it.

Great article on the Henry side gate. Owning a 35 Rem Marlin since the mid 80's with its side gate tubular feed I kinda like the drop tube feed rather than the side gate. I am planning on buying a Henry 30-30 sometime this coming spring and am very happy to hear they shoot so well. My 35 and I have taken a few southern whitetails with DRT single shots using 200 gr. core lokt hand loads. I recommend the 35 Rem to deer hunters without a second thought. It has great performance and a very mild recoil. Here lately its been hard to find Rem 200 core lokt's in 35 cal. But the brass is plentiful and there are a number of good 35 bullets out there to choose from. My Marlin likes Win 748 powder to push my bullets and that available as well.

You are so right about the 35's, they will surely put the hurting on Deer and hogs.
I like 'em a lot, enough that I own three. ;)

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
