I want a good 200 grain mold for my .35 Remmie?

[S.B.]

What would you suggest?

35-200-FN RCBS...hands down./beagle

[Glen]

As beagle says, the RCBS 35-200-GC is an excellent bullet in the .35 Remington. My second choice would be the Saeco 200 grain bullet (#356), and my third choice would the Saeco 245 grain bullet (#352).

I gotta go along with the RCBS 200 grain FN GC also !

But I think there are many possibilities with the new Ranch Dog 359-190 FN GC !

[bobthenailer]

ive shot thousands of the rcbs 200 gr gc in 2 357 pistols & 1 357 rifle and in a 350 mag rifle. accuracy is the best of the 8 or so 358 bullets i tried in all the above firearms

Is everyone's RCBS 35-200FN mold difficult to open during the casting process? I think it may be due to the deep round lube groove.

In all honesty I could keep all my 35's other than the 38 spcl happy for the rest of my life with nothing other than the RCBS 35-200.....but I wouldn't want to be forced into that corner though.

Mine fall out of the mold like they should....plop plop..sizzle sizzle

Know what you mean !

I use the RCBS 35-200GC in my old Marlin 336SC 35 REM . Use the Ranch Dog 359-180GC in my Marlin 336ER (356 WIN) . Use the Ranch Dog 359-190GC in my Marlin 336D 35 REM . And I use the Lyman 358627 215 grain SWC GC in my two Marlin 357 MAG rifles ;-)

How do you get the 358627 to feed in your Marlin .357? It's too long to feed in mine (I would LOVE to shoot that bullet in my Marlin). Trim your brass? .38 cases?

At first when I crimped in the crimp groove I would load them one at a time in the chamber . And then I thought about two options , the first was to trim some cases down a bit or crimp out of the crimp groove . So to make matters easier for myself I just crimp above the groove and it works for me !

There IS a GB for a Lyman 358430 copy of a 195 gr rn plain base going on..I for one plan to use it in a couple of 35 rems & 38/357 revs. (Shameless plug over)..

Shameless plugs are great...I have even falsely offered free lead in the swapping and selling to get group buy attention...is that wrong?:twisted:

Mike,

Hmmm... maybe I need to check mine for burrs. I already adjusted the alignment pin depth because the mold wouldn't close all the way.
