35 Rem. Tips
« on: July 18, 2012, 07:26:21 AM »
I have reloaded allot of rounds, but old 35 gives me a hick of a time. Is there a trick or is just a hard round to reload with angle of the shoulder? I love the round and have killed tons of hogs with it and do not want to get rid of it. So can someone walk me through it.

What Issues are you having?
I load for quite a few 35 Remingtons and have no issues with any of them. All are old Ballard Marlin 336's. The best accuracy is going to come from a 200gr bullet although one of my Marlins I have actually competed in benchrest with using a custom Winchester bullet weighing in at 250grs. No tellin' what I'll show up with at a shoot. I use the medium burn rate powders like 4064, H335, 3031, etc.

I mushroom the shoulder out and I shoot them in my Remington 7600.

I'm guessing that your are full length sizing your brass..back the die off just a tad.

If it's mushrooming when you seat the bullet, the bullet seat die is screwed in too far. Back it up about half a turn.

make sure your champering the inside of your case mouth. I just ran into a batch of 257 wby that would crush seating the bullets and found it was because I had gotten lazy and hadnt champered them.

A flaring tool/Die is is also very helpfull. Your case doesn't require chamfering then.

Shouldn't  be to hard to load for. This rifle doesn't have a lot of closing  force like a bolt action so the cases need to be full length sized. However, not to the point of bulging the shoulder of the case. Maybe use a feeler gauge between the base of the die and the shell holder increasing the space till the action will close smoothly. Shouldn't take to much to get the right headspace.
