I've tried the Leverevolution ammo in my .35 Marlin. Accuracy was great. But more importantly, I didn't suffer any light hits as I sometimes do with handloads that might have hard primers. Each primer indent in the Hornady ammo was deep and positive. I would not hesitate to hunt with this stuff as the most important aspect of the ammunition is that it must go bang when you pull the trigger, be it the only spike you've seen in a week of hard hunting or a true wall hanger.
Frankly, the .35 is not a gun normally used for range sessions so there's little need to handload for it. Also, there isn't much room for ballistic improvement in this round, at least none in which the deer will feel the difference.
