I recently picked up some Speer 180 grain to try in my 35 Rem. I have not had a chance to work up loads as yet. Been doing some reading and it appears the 180 grain Speer is a very good all around bullet, good for most anything up to elk. Anxious to try it. By the way, I too, have the Skinner peep on my 336. Bought my 336 new in 1971. I have not hunted with it in many years, but intend to bring it back to life when I can get the new bullets worked into decent loads.

There was no greater freedom than when I would leave Holiday Park Fish Camp heading my airboat west toward the Big Cypress. Fuel for 4 days, a good machete, an ice chest. No phone, no radio. Just God and me and the Everglades.
