Is anyone here handloading these bullets for their old 35REM Marlin 336?
I have a 1951 336SC, with ballard rifling and was wondering if anyone would share their load data?
I have several reloading manuals I use, but would like to see what is already working good in these rifles.
Thanks,dave

I am loading 41.0 of H-335 in remington cases with a winchester WLR primer. Just use enough crimp to hold the bullet in the cannnelure.
Doc.

I've not loaded them up yet but when I do, I'll be using Hodgdon LVR powder with Fed 210 primers. The LVR powder gets excellent reviews. Good accuracy and the best velocity of any powder with that setup.

They sure shoot good in factory ammo. I have been amazed. I wish the 160 gr still shot as good in my .30-30 as it used to. I wonder what changed. I did notice a slight difference in the brass and the primers are a different color from the early runs.

Hornady FTX 200grain bullets came in today.
I have several 5 round groups loaded up for different powder charges in Varget, IMR4198, 4064,and 3031.
Hope to put things on paper and see how things group soon.
