Thanks, Dale

How many are you looking for?
As many as I can scrounge up honestly. I haven’t seen any in stock for a long while anywhere.
MidwayUSA has Hornady .358 200 grain FlexTip bullets in stock. They can be fired through a lever gun and my experience with them has been that they can be pretty accurate. Can you use them?
How has you wound track damage been? How have they held up my experience w the 30-30 variety they cave explosive inside 50...
i think i have a couple hundred 200 gr rn and some 250 gr rn. i run the 200 gr rn in a 35 rem 141 pump and the 250 gr rn in 35 whelens.
If you are running a 35 Rem, you might use the 200-210 grain flatnose cast boolits on game with the same effect as jacketed bullets. Matt's Bullets 205 grain(.359 or .360 if requested) works well, GT bullets also lists a 200 grain and 220 grain cast hollowpoint that should also work. Are you shooting deer or bigger stuff?
Mostly deer w it. I have some lead cast currently but want to have some jackets on hand. I know I don’t NEED them for deer but I would like to find some if I’m able.
Back in the mid 80s I had a Marlin (IIRC) lever gun in 35 Rem. I only kept it for a couple of years, but I shot a couple of deer with it in PA gun season. I loaded some rounds up using Hornady 180g XTP bullets and the shot pretty well out of the gun and performed well on the deer. I’m only offering this so you might have a “back-up” plan if you can’t find what you’re looking for. Good luck.
This is where I order my custom 358 jacketed bullets from. He can make round nose ones.
