I have a Sharps Borchardt chambered in 25-35. It was rebarreled with a Winchester barrel from I what I presume was a 250 Savage or 25-06. It has a slow twist (1-14") barrel, so I have been using 87 and 90 gr bullets in it. It does seem to shoot 117 gr bullets OK when shooting at rocks and other targets of opportunity.
I use 28.5 gr H4895 under 87 gr Sierra bullets for most of my shooting. I have not shot any big game with this combo. You should check the twist of your barrel to determine how heavy you can go. If it will shoot a 100gr bullet OK, I would load them up and go for it. I don't believe premium bullets will buy you anything in this cartridge, so the standard Nosler solid base or Hornady interlock should be find. Put one through the lungs and the deer will die.
