William, interesting information...I have read a bit about the .25-35 on varmits, both in the older information in the Rifleman, and from Francis Sell...I load 75 grain Horn.Vmax for varmits, but load those single shot into my Marlin...Lately, I have done my biggame shooting with Hornady 117 RN..I had a couple 100 grain Serria sptizers fail badly on a nice buck antelope...oddly they killed well when fired out of a .25-06...May have just had a bad bullet...My little rifle is a fun gun..I enjoy it each fall...and some varmiting in the summer..it is fun to read about what riflemen were doing in the 20's and 30's...Davis tried the 25-35 and 25 Rem. on turkey in his quest for a perfect turkey rifle...I tried mine on gobblers..did a fair job...with a different bullet it would be excellent....
