Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting 35 Remington

I have some leftover Hornady Leverevolution from when I had a '35 EG.
Did the Lightfoot mount and it worked great, but the gun just felt awkward.
I'd get another and go w a high comb stock, factory D&T and maybe lighter bbl.
Think that an "F" model?
Mine had a lot of finish wear. Should have said screw it and cut bbl, change stock and D&T.
It shot decent enough, trigger not bad.
Did find an F in .308 w mag missing, and the trigger was atrocious.
Good deal but w that trigger, said screw it.

Do think a 20 ga sized SXS in .35 rem would be a cool woods rifle.
Silly maybe, but a double, on such a comfy round..........it'd be quite the gentleman.

Double rifles have to be regulated to shoot worth a damn and that costs a lot more than it is worth to most people.

I've long wondered why Savage didn't chamber the Model 99 for the 35 REM once they adapted the action for the rimless 250-3000 in 1915.

It seems as though the 32 WS and 35 REM would both have been good fits in both the pre- and post-WW1 line up of cartridges that Savage did chamber.

Pre-WW1: 22HP, 25-35, 250-3000, 30-30, 303 SAV, 32-40, and 38-55.

Post-WW1: 22HP, 250-3000, 30-30, 303 SAV, and 300 SAV.

The Baikal .30-06 double tempted me a couple of times.
Was under a K by a bit back then.

There are inserts that adjust, seen em advertised overseas.........but they were not cheap.
Not sure the brand. Cost was around a grand or so (each). Proly for converting shotguns IIRC.

Can't find on the web, just looked for a bit.

IIRC the rifled 20ga SxS "professional" RBL was around 3500.

I had an IZH-94 combination gun, 12 over 6.5x55 and never could get the rifle barrel to shoot worth a damn even though it could, in theory, be regulated.

I sold it to a friend who just knew that he could make it shoot, but he shot it a lot and never got it to shoot worth a damn and the last I knew he was thinking of dumping it on Cabela's sometime when they had something on sale that moved him.

Bearrr264 had a couple of the Japanese Winchester 101 Grand European combination guns in 12 over 7x57 and 12 over 9.3x72R that couldn't be regulated. Neither of them shot worth a damn either and they cost well over $1K when he bought them. Before he died, he offered them to me for what he had into them, but that was before I sold my first business and we were eating hot dogs and ramen noodles so that we could keep everybody we owed money to paid every month.

I remember seeing a couple of Browning Continentals

My first deer rifle was a 336 Marlin 35Rem,i have a model 81Rem in 35Rem I shoot a lot, I had a 141 pump that I let get a way from me !!!

No experience, only with the big 220gr Speers in a Marlin lever, they are indeed plows, loaded them because some really heavy animals were potentially on the list for that years hunting, when they are shot up i'll go to the 180gr Speers, have no doubt they'll knock the crap out of deer and pigs.

My 35 Remington experience is exactly like gunner500's above.

I had a Marlin 336 rifle with a 24" barrel and a pistol grip, with a 1/2 magazine. I mounted a Williams 5D peep sight on it. It was very accurate and I killed a deer, and hunted elk with it one time, but I didn't get an elk with it. My buddy borrowed it and killed a nice black bear on the same elk hunt. I shot Remington 200 grain round nose a lot,. but never killed any game with them. The only bullet I ever shot deer with, and what I had in Idaho for the elk hunt was loaded with 220 grain Speers. They were excellent on the deer and always exited leaving holes about the size of silver dollars. I expect at the close range I was hunting elk in the Selway, they would have been a really good elk round too. In that area I hunted for several years and I never once got a shot at any elk that was over 60 yards with most of them being at 35 and less. About 6 feet.

I am currently looking for another 35 Remington. I have always liked the old round. The 3 rifles I would consider are a Remington 14 or 141, or a copy of the old marlin, but if I go for a marlin I want a rifle, not a carbine. Maybe if I get one I will not be so foolish as to let someone buy it from me again. If I get another I will again try to kill some elk with it, God willing.

We are running the 180 speer HCFP in my daughter 357 maximum at 2325 FPS and we have yet to catch a bullet. All pass throughs even a sharp quartering away that traveled about 30” of deer and exited the center of the neck with a hole I could stick my thumb in. I think it’s a great bullet in 35 cal.

I still think a Ruger 1A w 22" bbl in .35 rem would be great

Gave a 1928 Remington Model 14 in 35, to the boy a couple of years ago. Darn cool rifle. He used it on a hog hunt . Worked very well. Darn nice handling for a running hog.

i've got a dozen or 15 35's in pumps and levers. one that i don't have is a bolt. i really wish they would bring the model 7 carbine out in one. i should have bought the model 600 i saw years ago for 500 bucks. it was nice but i thought it was pricey. which considering my financial situation at the time, it was.

There was a Model 7 KS in .35 rem way back IIRC.
Custom shop laminated mannlicher too.
Might have been a reg stainless synth also.

there was indeed a 7KS in .35rem; stumbled onto the one in pic below as an accidental find at a local gun show. It was unfired when found, but i fixed that pretty quickly...added a 1.5-5x with German #4, and it was worked well, and quite accurate.

have taken a good assortment of deer & a few hogs with the .35rem in 14" contenders, 16" & 21" contender carbines, and a Marlin lever....very effective round. Would like to eventually add Rem 760 to that lineup if a nice one presents itself.

Saw a 600 in 35 on Gunbroker. Pricey is right! I think it was around 2600! Ouch!

I never got to use the big 220's on a cow elk or Nilgai bull, but have absolutely no doubt they'd put either down hard and fast inside 200 yards, I need to go back to that big white oak and dig the 220 that blasted through that big bedded 8pt's shoulders and have a look at it.

hmmm.... might be time to sell the one i inherited.

I have a belief that the 336 rifle in 35 Remington could get pretty close to the ballistics of a savage 99 in 358 win.

I recently acquired a 336 ER and a 32 WS 336 rifle. So szhin if you pm me an email, I could send you photos of the 35 rem 336 rifle I own. As I would consider selling it.
