If anyone has a problem finding bullets for a 35cal, in any chamber, they have problems. The old bullet selection argument is a bit thin these days. smile



Maybe I should rephrase: .35s have generally been saddled with slower twists, which thereby limit bullet selection because of length. Though, you may be right, it seems Northfork or Swift or somebody is making some heavier weights.


That is true about the slow twist .35's, but with a Jess rebore you can have him it twist it the way you want.


The problem remains limited bullet selection for your fast twist because most bullets are made for traditional twists.
