Is it just me or is something amiss with the availability of .35 rem ammo. I have checked many sources but sometimes not even listed.
Any ideas?

I checked for a buddy. The ONLY source was Old West Scrounger (who makes excellent reloads) @ $34.95/ box.

I'm in the gun biz here in S.C. in a fairly large store with pretty good buying power with our main suppliers and we have not seen a single box of ANY brand (Federal, Winchester, Remington, Hornady) since early deer season 2013. It has certainly been on the backburner with the manufacturers...

Picking up brass, like offered above, and reloading is the answer. I don't have a .35 Rem, but a good bud does. I've been able to keep him in ammo this way.

You can pay high prices on auction sites. I have. I've also paid high prices at a dealer. He had them on the shelf because he likes full retail pricing on everything. Also there's good people out there on forums that will share. Good people
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

I used to just order it on back order and wait till it comes in. Sitting on about 200 rounds now so I just pick up a couple boxes when I see it. If you are in Fenton, I would order it on back order from BPS and have it shipped to the Auburn Hill store. Sometimes you wait weeks other time months.

I buy ammo fairly regularly at Sportsmans Warehouse. I don't know if Walmart carries Ammo in your area but they should have it as well. I'd try there. Maybe even Cabelas or Bass Pro.

I'm "hoarding" 6 boxes of Remington Core-Lokts - minus a handful for sight in. Shelves were empty for the longest time around here - Hornady, Remington - zip, zero, nada. Last summer I stopped in the local farm supply store and low and behold . . .
I never thought I'd grow up to be a grumpy old man, but I did, and I'm killin' it.

Might even try D&B Supply. They carry ammo.

Some bullets are available, and I have brass to reload, but loaded factory ammo is few and far in-between. I managed to pick up a box of 100 new cases so I'm sitting pretty good to reload.
Now, .375 Winchester factory ammo or reloading components is another story ....

I'm in the gun biz here in S.C. in a fairly large store with pretty good buying power with our main suppliers and we have not seen a single box of ANY brand (Federal, Winchester, Remington, Hornady) since early deer season 2013. It has certainly been on the backburner with the manufacturers... I have been looking for 35REM in both Basspro and Calelas without any luck. The thuddy - thuddy remains a top deer cartridge but I've always preferred the 35REM. With its moderate recoil and a hel1 of oomph behind it. The fact is the 35REM is now over 100 years old and at the end of the road. It is fast becoming obsolete and any time I see a box its mine ..... even at $35

Glad I don't have to worry about it cuz I sent my .35 down the road and kept my .30-30's. Plenty of .30-30 ammo on the shelves everywhere and field experience showed me the .30-30 puts deer on the ground every bit as well as the .35 ever did.

Ammo will be availble again eventually if you can weather the storm. Luckily I have 400-500 of the 200 grain Corelocts and many hundred pieces of brass laid by.
Always remember that you are unique, just like everyone else.

We really are having 2 problems with 35REM. Its hard to find and when I do find a box, it cost twice as much as 30-30.
