Anyone out there working with the old 35 Winchester cartridge? 

Have the experiences been good, bad, indifferent? 

I have a Model 95 in .35 Winchester.  Not a target rifle but plenty good for the use and range it was meant for.

Full house loadings, as far as I can see, are right up there with the .405 Winchester.  Cast bullet loadings (I use the Ideal 358318 HP) seem to hit almost as hard as cast bullet .45-70 loadings; much more authority than any .30 caliber cast load.  I picked the caliber for its ability to use .38 pistol bullets for plinking, but mostly stick to the 358318.

I make the brass out of Hornady .405 shells.  One anneal in the midst of forming, and I haven't lost a case yet.

I have a Mod. 95 in .35 that is a take down model. It has a Lyman peep with the standard front sight.  Some years back I got some Bertram brass and loaded it up and went to the club.  I can't remember what powder I used or the bullet weight.  I was shooting 200 yard plates and the rifle was very accurate.  I remember it had a pretty good recoil and I seem to remember hearing that the 95's all had hard recoil.  I didn't play around with it much more than have some ammo on hand.  One day I will shoot some paper and play with it a bit more, but I can say it is a good round from my standpoint.  I do know I will wear a magnum woosie pad on my shoulder next time.  I have become a certified 'woosie' in my advancing years!
