Good on yer, Jerry!

Lots to be said for a levergun in 35 Remington.

Let us know how you make out with the lead bullets.

Like many of the other posters, I have stuff from LYMAN, LEE, RCBS, and Dillon. My Pro1000 loads dandy ammo. I don't like the primer feed, but the powder measure is better than the Dillon Square Deal's - at least the one that I have. Their Classic Cast Press (the iron one), is the equal of my Lyman ...

Best of luck to you and yours.

Always remember - they've GOTTA sell a car to eat. You
don't have to buy one from them unless you want to. I've
had pretty good luck doing my homework and not taking
any stuff. They'll come down to your price -if it's realistic -
before they'll let you walk.

Nice rifle - and equally nice shootin'!

Ain't it the truth, brother..........

I like Winchester 231 for pistol calibers. 9mm, 38 Special,
10mm, 45ACP, 44 Special and light loads in 41 Mag.

Exceptions are the magnums, where 2400 seems
to work well for me.

Lotsa folks swear by Unique, and I don't think you'd go
amiss with that.

What everybody else said. You will definitely save money rolling your own, especially if you have lots of brass already. You'll also be able to tailor the loads to what YOU want instead of what's on offer or available in your locale. It's not expensive to get started for one caliber, and the payback...

For the first time in my life, I registered as a Republican so that I could attend the Republican caucus in Maine - and I did that only to vote for Ron Paul and become a delegate for him at the state Republican convention in May.

One gets what one pays for - usually anyway. And it's true

That recipe flat works. My all-time favorite cat got into it with a skunk (but only once! :lol: ), and my wife bathed him in that solution. Oh, he was NOT a happy cat!! He was even angrier when she went to dry him with the hair dryer! :shock: When I got home he was out on the deck looking like a dro...

I love the 41 Magnum, but you've got to reload or go broke shooting it.

That said, what a great excuse to get into reloading AND order a
matching revolver!

Ewwww.... a neat job, to be sure, but not to my tastes.

You go, DavidF!! Ron Paul is the first guy running for president in years who's not gonna whore himself to the major media and rich corporations, and has the record in Congress to prove it.

When the Feds want your guns, they'll kick your doors in and take 'em. The LEOs WILL be on board, and they'll be told you're a "terrorist" or something, and that will be that. Just look at NAZI Germany - lots of good Germans went along with anything the NAZI's did, because either they or t...

Be careful! Remember that a realtor is just a "used house salesman". That's it! He or she works to get that big, fat commision check. The more they can sell the home for, the more they get paid. $7500 "earnest money" is nuts. It's obvious the seller is going to use it to get the ...

Yes, if you have the brass, and yes, depending on what's available in your neck of the woods, and yes, depending on the load you want. I can assure you that I can load 10mm and 41 Mag a LOT cheaper than I can buy anything to feed those two critters! 9mm? Maybe not so much of a savings there. :wink:

You've got that right, TedH!

There's probably more energy in the load you described than
in the original loading for the 30-30. And the 357 makes a
bigger hole. Nothin' wrong with that load for whitetail or
even black bear at shorter ranges.

My wife has made very few things I just couldn't eat. One time she made a fish dinner with some sort of marinade that was just God-awful.

I like that! I've got to find a nice, used Marlin in 32 Special
for the right price. It's a great cartridge.

Since it has a coupla tiny rust spots, why not go out and shoot
the dang thing? I'll bet you'd have a ball.

Good for Charlie! Too bad he didn't whack the varmint, though. Generally speaking, once the bad guy has pulled iron and threatened somebody with it, the good guy pretty much has the green light . Yelling, "Gimme your money!" while brandishing a shootin' iron and wearing a ski mask has a ce...

Yes, Old Savage, I was as happy as you to read the
report about the Core-Lokt bullets. The 200gr. shoots
great in my 336 - the 150gr., not so well.

I'm willin' to bet that a whitetail killed with the 35 Rem
is just as dead as the one the fella shot with the
375 H&H!

Whew!! Glad to hear it - I been wonderin' about that...

I can't shoot a handgun off of a rest to save my a**.

Hobie's advice is good, though. Find the load that gives you
the smallest group size in your gun and then go from there.

stretch

Bogie35, THAT is a comprehensive link! What a feast for
35 Remington lovers. I've always been a fan of the Core-Lokt
bullet. It's an old, old design - but it was done right the first
time.

Thanks!

Myself, I've committed felonies in a number of states. I figure if I ever REALLY need the gun, the felony rap will be the least of my worries. I figure most DAs will not press charges in a "good" shooting - they'll be too embarassed to prosecute a law-abiding veteran who just whacked a dru...

1886, they can be awfully tough to pin down once they've spotted you. I heard one barking down back last year, and spotted him up in a hemlock. I went down the hill after him and the chase was on. He went from tree to tree, up, down, and sideways. He finally came down to the ground about 20-25 yards...

1886, 60 yards for a squirrel is mighty good shootin' with an air rifle.
