Anyone see any 35 rem on the shelves in central pa. The only thing I have found so far is the Hornady Leverlution and I would rather just shoot a traditional 200gr round nose.
I may just have to break down and get them. No real reason for the aversion just personal taste I guess. My family has always shot Remington Corelocts in all calibers for the past 5 generations or so. Old habits tend to die hard I guess.
I cant find any 200gr cor lokt's so i started buying up bullets for reloading, i think i have 700 .35 cal bullets now... I dont think ill ever run out.. lol
Lantz Hardware is the name of the store that has them, I just called Tuesday and he said he still has about 20 box's of 200 core-lokt's. My sis is picking me up 2 box's today.
We couldnt any at our normal spots. Went to Millers in Ebensburg and they had Winchester. I wasnt really happy since we usually shoot Core lokts but bought them out of need (and boy were they pricey). Took them home and all 3 of us shot in our 35s better than we have ever in the past with minimal adjustments.

Funny you mention that. I bought 5 boxes of Winchester 35 Rem from Sportsman's Guide several years ago. They were on some kind of crazy sale for like $8/box....the Remingtons and Federals were almost $30. Anyway, I went to the range and started shooting....every single one keyholed. I ended up emptying all of them and using the brass for handloads. I wasn't even going to load for that rifle/caliber, but having so much brass and no good ammo I had little choice....dies were cheaper than a box of shells, 200gr RN Corelokts were cheap and available at the time....and I always have powder on hand so it was a no brainer.
I have no idea why those bullets keyholed. Ogive too far back? Undersize O.D.? I really have no clue. The Rems shoot just fine and my handloads are dead-nuts.
I just picked up a box of 200 grain RN bullets for reloading 100 in the box for 40 bucks. ..35 (358) and 45/70(458) are really hard to find what's the deal. Most other calibers.. stores seem to have .
Higher demand for other rounds so cant say I blame them from a business stand point but from someone who shoots this "odd caliber" it stinks
