Gunlaker, sorry to hear that you missed out on that HW in .25/35. Keep looking, that rifle/cartridge combo is real fun to shoot but they are tough to find. 
Corresponding with Bert H he says...."
There were (64) rifles made in 25-35 WCF that can be lettered, and I have found (9) more thus far in the 110000 - 140000 serial number range.  That brings the total number verified to (73), and I suspect that there may be another dozen or so of them out there yet undiscovered."
After many years of searching I've only seen 2 of them out here in Oz as the .25/35 never really was a popular cartridge. 
Mine was a well used farm rifle with a "good" bore and a 26" barrel but I grabbed it as soon as I found it.  While it is a bit rough on the exterior it shoots really well with the 117 gr Hornady RN and even better with the 100 gr Sierra spitzer (under an inch at 100 yds with the Lyman 103 sight). Photo shows the first test fire group with a load I cobbled together. I haven't shot cast bullets with it yet but have found a RCBS 100 gr FNGC mould that I will test out.

Spud on your target was the high shot possibly your first and a cold bore shot?

I have a sporterized (or, bastardized; depends on your outlook) Borchardt Al Story built for a friend in 25-35.  It has the Borchardt factory double set trigger set.  I bought it and another he had in 6.5x57R.  He made me a deal on the two, so they came to live here.

If you shoot jacketed bullets, the cartridge would be super for Antelope or Whitetail, even black bear.

Good Luck!

I have had two.25-35 HW's, now only one.  Action is a take-down model with original engraving that letters.  Have not shot it.
