Anyone have data for 86 gr castboolit loads for the old 25-35? Looking for a good plinkin round with Unique or maybe IMR 4198.

Thank you

I've used 5 gr Unique with the Ideal 257312. Under 2" at 50 yards in my relined Savage 99.

About any of the older handbooks should have a bunch of cast boolit loads for this cartridge.

Go to Castpics.net, select Load Data then select either of the Lyman manuals for data.

Ed Harris has an article in The Back Creek Diary on the Hensley& Gibbs website on this very subject. A good how-to on how to form .25-35 from .30-30 brass and .25-20 equivalent loads using the RCBS plainbased or Meister bullets. I'm using 7 grs. of #2400 with the RCBS bullet for 1400 fps.
