35 Remington/ LEVERevolution loads

[Rockydoc]

I can't seem to find loads for cast bullets in 35 Remington using LEVERevolution powder.
I want to use Lee C358-200, powder coated and gas checked in a Marlin 336 with 20 inch barrel.

There are plenty of loads for jacketed bullets especially with other powders, but some with LEVERevolution and jacketed.

Any suggestions? Have any of you worked up such a load?

I use jacketed book data with my cast bullets in .35 Remington with 3031 and H335, I don't see why it wouldn't work for Lever. 200 grains at 2000 fps is 200 grains at 2000 fps.

I only use that powder with a 200g FTX for my one 760 loads.
2400 is my cast powder.

Might wanna try W748 or reloader 7 also while your trying 35 rem loads out

We have been doing like Ian for years... Still no issues....

Lots of love with LVR on the marlinowners.com site... especially with the 200gr & heavier bullets. Found this for you as well... https://www.shootingtimes.com/editorial/35-remington-load-data/461615

Thanks, MW65. That reference is very specific to LVR. I intend to follow Ian’s advice and treat my powder coated, gas checked bullets as jacketed bullets.

My pleasure! I'll probably work on my load dev with rcbs 35-200 & the ranch dog 190gr later this year... would be interested in hearing how it works for ya.

My cast bullet for the 35 Remington is the Lee C358-200RF. I have some Cor-Loct 200 RN, but I plan to use only cast bullets in this gun. I have cast pistol bullets and some bullets from a MP 358 carbine mould with all the different nose configurations that is common to MP mounds. They are nominally 185 grains.

My '50s built 336sc, I try and use cast only... rcbs 35-200 is a favorite! I'm sure the Lee is going to work great as well. I've had some great fun with 358429, and am still putzing around with 125gr, as well as some wadcutters for other plinking/squirrel/nutria/ etc adventures...

 

[Rockydoc]

I suppose those wad cutters are a single shot or 2 shot affair.

I single load them... 358432s. But have a lee 6 cav 148gr which I need to play with.

A super-good varmet slug is those HB cast turned around backwards. Open end facing critter.

My 336SC is a '53 IIRC. Loves the RCBS 35-200FN, but I have a GB 180FN GC that ends up closer to 190 and the rifle loves it too. There IS something to be said for those 6 bangers!
