I’m not saying there is any validation at all. Simply something I’ve read gunsmiths that have worked on these rifles advise against. Just curious about other’s experiences.

I’ve heard several people say to stick to JFN ammo in those rifles. And to stay away from hard cast and LVR ammo if you care about the longevity of your rifle.

Trying to find a 141. In turn I am trying to figure out what to shoot out of it.

If it is over Saami pressure for a 35 Remington, I certainly would not. And given the speeds I seem to remember being touted by BB ammo, I don't see how it could not be over pressure.

Stick to standard factory loadings which by necessity keep the pressures down at Saami due to rifles like the 141 you mentioned, and much older like 14's and model 8's still commonly being used.

Given the price of 35 Remington ammo, if you can come up with some Speer 180 FN or Sierra & Hornady 200 gr RN, I'd buy them up. You can find brass, you can get the other components, but in 35 caliber, bullets is often the issue right now. Or if you happen to run across some good priced factory ammo buy it up.
Let’s say BB is probably not a good idea based on hot loads. It appears that somebody has told johnhroberts1993 not to shoot hardcast or LVR at all. What’s the validation behind that?

Don't know. Didn't come from me. I only responded specifically to BB ammo in a 141. Nothing wrong with shooting the LVR ammo in a 141. It's factory spec and if it's safe in a straight tube 336 (which it is) it most certainly is safe in a spiral tubed 141.

I never thought I would be reloading either but I am thanks to 35 Rem, 356 Win and 45-75 Win. I’m not set up to cast though. Finding the Speer 200gr FN is going to be tough. Speer discontinued them but they still do runs of the 180’s. You’ll have to get lucky and find someone getting rid of Speer 200’s.
