I was considering a .38/55 prior to the .35, was advised the bore wasn't suited to any existing jacketed bullets and I'd have to shoot cast, not a problem as I figure to get a copy of the RCBS 200 GC...

I recently picked up a 336 Marlin in .35 Remington for Cowboy Silhouettes, given the success people have reported with heavy slugs in .357 Magnum revolvers I estimate a 200gr cast at 1500-1600fps...
WW572, again with 71gr FMJ bullets and Remington 5.5 primers through the Beretta 81, only 3 shots each, avg fps/ES/# of shots registered.
2.3gr 692/30/3
2.5gr 771/45/3
2.7gr 848/2/2
2.9gr...
Finished up at 2.9gr and 920fps, extreme spread over 6 shots was 83fps. At 2.7gr I got 884fps and a spread of 29fps over 6 shots, these all through a Beretta Model 81.
Low on those bulk 71gr...
Low charges have given low speeds, 1.5gr BE-86 475fps, 1.7gr 580fps, 1.9gr 600fps in the M81 and they all ejected fine. I'll be buying a new recoil spring for that gun. 5 shots with each charge,...
Good information in the files from Outpost, one article mentions case dimensions and I've found the rounds that didn't chamber are PPU. Some of them fed, fired and ejected fine along with others,...
Thanks, the PM is on the way!
I've got Titegroup, plan on that being the primary powder, but always like having options especially those that have proven themselves in the cartridges I've loaded...
Thank you, does that program list 2400 powder? It's been found to be a solid performer with heavy cast bullets, to the surprise of some including me as it's another slow burner.
Anybody tried any of those powders in the .32 ACP? Just got some dies and have a box of 71gr FMJ to start, first loadings are BE-86 at 1.5gr and 1.7gr to try on the next range trip. Have those 3...

Someday I'd like mine to be a .300 Savage. They've done the .250Sav, doesn't seem like the .300 will be any time soon.

The only other Marlin I have to compare it to is a .41 Mag 1894 which has a similar pad but also a black spacer which is missing on this one. As it's attached the pad sticks out a bit at toe and is...

I've shot this rifle for a couple of seasons at cowboy silhouettes, it's set up with a Williams receiver sight and Lyman 17 front sight along with a Wild West trigger. It's the version with a Ducks...

I cast maybe 400 boolits from this one, it's the Gas Check version of the MIHA Mjolnir design advertised for the Single Seven and produced in 2019. Estimated weights are 130gr as a solid, 123gr with...
A S&W-stamped .44-40 sounds like as good an explanation as any.
I have heard from a friend who should be in a position to know for certain, that Federal and Winchester will be releasing their pistol bullets as components. Not any cast in .41 but the 175gr...
