Home Forums Lever Action Central Lever Actions - General New ammo for the 25-35 Winchester

Thanks, Chrome.

My local sporting goods store called tonight when I was getting ready to take my wife out for our anniversary dinner. My 10 boxes of the .25-35 FTX were in.

Looks like an old 336 will be getting a new barrel.

I just order some from Grafs and Midway has it too......so its coming in Have a fair amount of the "old" stuff but REALLY nice to have some "modern" options.

I'm interested to try the 41 mag load as well - about time Hornady gave that cartridge some attention

I have a Ruger #3 that I got re-barreled in 25-35 and it will get some of the new ammo.

Thanks for the heads up.

Just ordered 4 boxes of the new Hornady 25-35 ammo from Graf. They have them in stock.

I bet thats a great rifle a #3 in 25-35 Wow!

F&ck, I need to get a 25/35. It's really about the only thing left that I want.

Shouldn't have sold my 1899 in 25/35 about 12 years ago.

Dang I had 5 model 04s in 25-35 four new ones and one nice old one I bought for $125.Hope some new guns come out too !

I'd be happy with new Bee brass for less than $1 each

I tried some FTX ammo in a .35 Remington yesterday, and it shot well.

I have .25-35s in a T/C G2 Carbine and a rebarreled BSA Martini SS. With a single shot you can use any style bullet you want to (and I do). Deer and pig killers when loaded and pointed right.

Hey, they both got levers too!

Lipseys is listing a couple of winchesters in 25-35 on their website

Well how about that. 20" and 24". The $1,200.00 and $1,400 price tages may slow us up a bit but its still interesting.

I'm guessing it will be a little over $900 for the carbine. I only wish they would sheit can the rebounding hammer.

I have 20" Angle Eject. You could have nice levergun built up for $1,400.00 if you have donor.

I would prefer a Marlin or maybe a Henry in the 25-35 Win. Especially in the $600.00 price range. Of course there is no such thing.

Although the Miroku Winchester's seem well made.

I wonder if it more expensive to build on a win94 or a Marlin 336?

I recently bought a T/C Contender barrel in 25/35. I also bought a M8 scope and mounts for it. Since I reload I got some Hornady brass, IMR 3031 powder and some 60 grain bullets. As soon as I get around to it I'll have the scope mounted and load up some cartridges.

A bit easier to fit a Winchester barrel than a Marlin due to the hood on the Marlin. Probably not a serious consideration.

All this hoopla about Hornady .25-35 components has me excited too. At last, a fresh source for brass with which to make Savage .22 HiPowers.

I would give my left nut for an 1899H in .25-35. (If I'm dreaming, may as well go big. Who would want a Marlin or Winchester when they could wish for a Savage?! )
