My brother offered to sell me his .35 Marlin at a very reasonable price last year. No thanks. Too much of a PITA to find .35 bullets and brass these days and too damned expensive when you do, all for absolutely no advantage over the .30-30. I got rid of my .35 years ago because after killing a bunch of deer with each, I concluded that the only thing it did better than my .30-30 was empty my wallet.
