    Haven't been able to find it locally, but more and more powders are showing up around here all the time. But no, i haven't tried it. I'm gonna try and ease up with the unique a bit more for now and see what happens with it.

    That's an awfully big case for a little dab of fast powder. Can't figure out why it works in 30-30 or 32WS so it follows my contrarian logic that it just might work in the 35 Whln.

    Bringing this old post back to life, as the classic round and bullet need to stay alive.

    35 Shooter....have you done anymore with the round and tried other powders?

    If you have some IMR 4831...give it a try. I had wonderful success with it using the NOE 360-310 Thumper. Didn't have a chrono set up and just shot for group. Amazing how well it worked in my rifle . Sized to .3595, two coats of Ben's Liquid lube after heat treating COWW with 2-3% tin. Estimates on velocity were north of 1900 fps....some more seasoned shooters than me suggested higher.
