35 Rem

[BigAl52]

Just was over on Gunbroker and found a couple of the sidegates in 35 Remington. Looks like they are showing up in time for some hunting seasons

Thinking those .35 Rem Henry's will be a good seller about now. Season's are creeping up! Solid cartridge in a solid rifle.

When I was in Idaho a couple months ago, I saw a very well put together Marlin 336 in .35 Rem for $509. They still have it, but, it's Micro Groove rifling. Not a bad price.

Tom, nothing wrong with the Micro groove rifles.
I have two, one from the early 60's and another from the mid 70's.
Both shoot my cast loads well, don't know about the jacketed stuff as I don't shoot any.
I would like to test one of the Henry's, and see how they compare.

Vaquero, believe me, my wheels are turning! When I get back from a hunting trip, I'll be sitting down to really ponder this one. Can you give me an idea what your cast loads are? Scheese, I'll be thinking more on that Marlin than helping my bud look for deer. Well, maybe not, but, you know...... Thanks.

Shooting Speer 180 and 220 with my 336. Fine accuracy.
Working on Silhouette loads.

Tim, those Speer 180's and 220's, are those jacketed?

[Ojaileveraction]

Yes

Tim, those Speer 180's and 220's, are those jacketed?

I have also loaded and shot Sierra RN. no complaints.
All Silhouette shooting.

the 35 Remington has an interesting history .... originally designed for use in a Remington Model 8 semi auto .... it was favored by gangsters and law enforcement as well .... some reports say it was used in the Bonnie and Clyde ambush

Ok, jacketed.

As far as cast goes. I was looking for cast lead in my 35 rem as a less expensive option.
From Montana Bullet Works, great options and service just not a less expensive option.

I can get the Jacketed Speers at a good price locally and I've stocked up a bit.

I'm likely to snap up the first one of these I come across regardless of what it's chambered for! I'm a big fan of the .35 Remington, but I can't hunt deer with it here in Ohio, so it would be a groundhog/general shooting rifle. For that type of use, any of the three (.35/.30-30/38-55) would work well.

Tom I used the RCBS 200gr bullets for a long time.
Then I bought a Lee's version of it.
I powder coat and load them over 24.5 grs of IMR 4198.
Have taken a few deer with this load.

Good luck on the deer hunt.
