Got one saturday morning. Smallish boar about 120 lbs. Came in to the feeder at 7:15. Rifle: CVA Scout, 35 Rem, Stainless. Load: R-P brass, Tula LR primer, 38 gr. H 335. Boolit: RCBS clone from NOE, sized 0.360, at 208 gr lubed and checked. Alloy: 50-50 COWW and plumbers lead. Earholed him at 40 yds. Exit hole about an inch in dia. Broke his neck, and didn't lose any edible bits. It was coming a young Noah at the time, so no pictures.
Good to go!
Semper Fidelis, to God, Country and Corps!
Got to love them 35 Remy's.
good job
I use the same boolit in my 358 win
Hit em'hard
hit em'often
That's a good bullet on my .358 and has shown promise in one .35 Remington I've tried.
How do you like that CVA Scout?
My RCBS mold throws to 220 gr. Perfect boolit. I found that 39.0gr of BLC2 is the "magic" combo for mine. Got a doe at ~105 yds last fall.
I'll probably never buy another jacketed bullet for the .35Rem.
With a drilled hollow point, it's like a "Nosler partition" without the $.$$ price tag.

I love the CVA. It is short, light and accurate. It does need to be throated. I have to seat projectiles deep to make them work. Other than that it is great.
Good deal! glad to see you getting out and about instead of working 80+ hrs a week.
I have an Accurate mold that I had to seat deep or trim the brass about 0.100" to make chamber. I bought a RCBS 35 200 FN and it chambered perfectly with the brass at the prescribed "trim to length". Both shot fine. A great caliber for the buckskins!Originally Posted by geezer56

The RCBS 35-200 is an excellent hunting bullet. My son took his Elk with it in a Marlin 35 Remington at a lasered 198 yards. Rifle with receiver sight two shots. One complete pass through, other lodged in off side leg. Elk traveled maybe 10 yards.
Sure wish NOE would make those 35-200 (RCBS) molds again!
Pretty sure he still has this mold

Nope, Just 2 ea 2 cav PB, 1 ea 4 cav PB and 3ea 5 cav PB in stock, no gas checked 35-200 at all for a long time.
Yup....I should have read the fine print closer. My bad. Has anyone emailed him and asked to make more? I have a four cavity and have yet to cast in it. Should make a point of getting it hot before fall is upon us.
There's a few requests for an inventory run. One is mine.
You could always put a pb gc on the pb bullet, and run it full velocity that way. Pat Marlin sells those pb gc makers. Pretty handy.
Gotta love those 35 Remingtons in an old Marlin with this 35-200 FN boolit. I have an old straight stock one that has never let me down using an alloy mix like yours geezer. Great combo for our whitetail here as that is all I have taken with mine.
Mark 5:34 And He said to her (Jesus speaking), "Daughter, your faith has made you well. Go in peace and be healed of your affliction."
Anyone shooting them plain base? Seems like a good candidate for no gas check.
My NOE HP casts at 220 grs. out of 50/50 WW-Pb. Air cooled, I shoot them at almost 2,200 fps from my firelapped 336, with excellent 50 yd. iron sight accuracy. (1/2"ish). NOE got this mold right. I hope future runs are to the exact same spec. This mold is also the best yet from my Freedom Arms 353 at almost 1,500 fps., grouping right at 1" at 50 yds. I think this is one of the best all time boolit designs.
With a gas check?
