200-grain Hornady FTX/64.0 TAC--2956 fps
225-grain Nosler AccuBond/62.0 TAC--2803 fps

The brass was Remington and the primers Winchester LR.

Didn't shoot a vast number of groups, but the 225 load shot a little better than the 200.




Nosler shows a couple 225 loads getting 2,800 FPS. Do you know off hand what pressure they load the 35?


I prefer classic.
