To the contrary though, the .35 is nearly obsolete while the .30-30 remains in the top 5 in overall ammunition sales Yes, but only because the 30-30 is the official gun of the "Gay Pride" movement in America. Since it won't kill anything they use them to shoot each other in the ass and get off on the mild tingling sensation. Hmmm, makes me wonder why you are defending it so hard. LOL!

Did we ever find out if RGK's rifle was stolen?
Mike No Mike, it's not. Not the serial number of the stolen rifle. I bought it NIB, ordered through a dealer in CA. Bob

Your Michigan deer ain't any bigger than certain Species of your so called "Southern Whitetail" from Alabama, Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas, Misery, and more. Your deer fall just as easy as the rest. I know, because I hunt your deer too. You would do well to learn the sub-species of whitetails before you term some puny.
You might want to learn the sub species yourself. Northern Woodland and Dakota are the largest. And look up the heaviest deer on record while you're at it....they're from Michigan's UP, Wisconsin and Minnesota, Maine and probably some Canadians in there as well. Look up Bergmann's Rule too and you'll see why deer in the south are smaller. When I was in Georgia they reminded me of German Shepherds. A guy in my platoon was from there and bragging about a 6 pt he shot that dressed at 110. If you count the deer they imported from Wisconsin, then they're getting some larger ones. While there may be exceptions, generally they are smaller. I have more rifles of both calibers, and have killed more with both, than maybe everyone on this forum combined.
That's quite the claim given some of the clientele here....

or a 30/30 that has been hitting the gym real regularly That's about the biggest "old wives tale" out there. I sold my .35 after killing enough deer with it to reach the conclusion that it just wasn't quite as effective as my .30-30 and that all the gun pundits who praised it for it's superior killing power throughout the years were just plain full-o-chit . For deer, I don't see much difference, though definitely not less effective than the 30-30. The 35 starts to shine when the game gets bigger. Heavier bullet with larger diameter at about the same speed, yet LESS effective? VERY interesting perspective to say the least. I sold my 336 35 Rem in favor of my 336 in 356 Win. I prefer my 35 Rems to look like this: ![[Linked Image]](http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p32/2muchgun/5665C12D-9938-445B-AC01-74501F800CF0_zpspbic6bpl.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i124.photobucket.com/albums/p32/2muchgun/71F05186-85A2-4AE9-88E5-C3F80A57E17C_zpskl81eovw.jpg) Easiest way to understand that thinking is to go to the "hunters campfire and read the "about police militarization" thread where Derby Dude tells us how sound suppressors actually make the gun louder
The government plans these shootings by targeting kids from kindergarten that the government thinks they can control with drugs until the appropriate time--DerbyDude

I've been happy since I started posting, I'll stick by my claims as well as you folk stick to yours.  I can roast a marshmallow over it, add fuel to it, or poke it with a stick.

Lou M, I only have 2 30-30's and 2 35's. I do prefer the 35 remington. When I lived in Alaska and was traveling through Canada, with the number of bears they have that you can run into out camping, I prefer the extra weight of the 35. In answer to your question. I like lever guns and also have a nice 45-70, 44 Mag, 45 Colt, etc. In Alaska the 45-70 mostly got the call. Besides that I grab the 35, when it comes to a lever gun.

I have the same pump action Remington rifle, found it at the LGS when I was home on leave from Afghanistan in 2012. It went home with me, after I traded 75 new AR mags for it. I like a good horsetrade. Never was much of a fan of Winnie 94's or Mar 336, I do like the lines of the Savage 99 though.

Wish I had a CZ 527 in .35 Remington. That would be an ideal brush gun for me. Great caliber. My Marlin lever action .35 is very accurate.
