Is there a specific time of year that the major manufactures run these calibers? Primarily keeping an eye out for new brass.

I'd say yes on the 35 & 444, most likely prior to most Big game hunting seasons.
As to the 45 70 I don't know as I don't shoot it.
But it has regained popularity over the past 30 or so years thanks to the 444 introduction.

Starline brass just did a run on 45-70 a couple of months ago.

I haven't been to a gun show in a while. Got tired of the inflated pricing. I'll have to check one out soon.

I see better prices on obsolete calibers at gunshows than I do anywhere else.
