It is fast becoming obsolete and any time I see a box its mine ..... even at $35 shocked


one more in a nearly endless list of good reasons to HAND LOAD for the 35 remington.
you might consider a 200 grain hard cast as it makes bullet availability far easier, and yes you can very effectively kill deer with a 180-220 grain cast bullet from a 35 Remington
