.35 rem

[lastborn]

I need some advice please.
I have a 336 in .35 Remington with a short throat. I have to trim my FIRED brass to 1.870 to use the boolit that I want to develop a load for.
I want to use the RANCH DOG TLC359-190RF boolit { the only .35 rifle mold I have at the present }
In order for me to use the crimp groove, I have to trim FIRED BRASS to 1.870 and that makes the C.O.A.L. 2.260---this is only one thousandth off the lands. My question, is this OK? Do I have to worry about less case space raising pressures to unsafe levels? Do I even have to worry about it? Can you give me a load recipe that you think would be best to start with?
Thanks for your time.

That should not present problems. Mike Reamy, formerly Ranch Dog Outdoors and I ran into the same problem with a Marlin 336 using that same bullet. Trimming the brass solved the problem nicely and it worked well in terms of observed pressure and accuracy. IMHO, you wont have any trouble

Lee makes a factory crimp die in .35 Rem. Since I hate to trim cases so much, I would buy one of those dies then seat the bullet deep enough to chamber in normal length .35 Remington cases. Final step is crimping where YOU want, ignoring the crimp groove.

thanks for the suggestions.

Done it with no problems at all.

I have 2 Marlins in .30-30 that I trim the brass back to seat the boolits, works just fine.
