I've been loading a Marlin 336 in .35 Remington with 200 grain Hornady RN and 3031 for over 30 years. For an east Tennessee hog hunt I moved up to a 250 grain RN at about 1700 FPS that penetrated a big sow almost 2 feet diagonally from the neck to just ahead of the right ham and dropped her DRT. Nothing fancy- - - -just slow and deadly like Thor's hammer!
