Gun Descriptions

.35 Remington

Over the years, the .35 Remington has been chambered in a variety of rifles by most firearms manufacturers, and continues in popularity today in the Marlin Model 336 lever-action and Henry Side Gate Lever Action. It is also a popular cartridge for single-shot hunting pistols like the Thompson/Center Contender and the Remington XP-100. For hunters looking for a medium-power rifle with moderate recoil, for short to medium ranges, the .35 Remington is popular alongside the .30-30 Winchester. It has a small but loyal following in the northeast and areas of the southern United States. The cartridge uses a medium to heavy bullet and has moderate recoil based on a moderate pressure level of 33,500 CUP as set by SAAMI. The normal factory load consists of a 200 grain round-nosed bullet with a muzzle velocity of 2080 feet per second. This 200 grain bullet is nearly 18% heavier than the .30-30's 170 grain bullet, and has a 16% larger frontal area. This gives it a substantial increase in power over the .30-30, especially when used on larger game species. Remington helped promote the advantage in power that the .35 Remington had over the .30-30 through a series of advertising campaigns in the early 1900s. One of their advertisements even publicized the ability of the .35 Remington to penetrate a 5/16â€³ steel plate, which the .30-30 Winchester could not do. The .35 Remington is considered a fine round for deer, elk, black bear, and other medium and large game as long as ranges are reasonable. Hornady currently produces a .35 Remington load in their LEVERevolution line that features a rubber-tipped spitzer bullet which is safe to use in lever action or pump guns with tubular magazines.

.35 Whelen

35 Whelen Ammo Designed in 1922 by Col. Townsend Whelen and James Howe, the 35 Whelen Ammo is a rimless bottlenecked powerful rifle cartridge. Its parent is the .30 - 06 Springfield, and it is necked to accept a bullet diameter of .358 inches. It has its place of origin in the USA. Of all of Colonel Townsend's rifle cartridges designs, the 35 Whelen Ammo is famous and widely used. With a neck diameter of .385 inches and a shoulder diameter of .441 inches, it has a rim diameter of .473 inches and a base diameter of .472 inches. This amounts to an overall length of 3.340 inches (84.8mm). It has a European metric designation of 9 Ã— 63mm. The 35 Whelen Ammo does not drop below a thousand ft-lbs of energy until almost 600yards. Therefore, it is perfect for long hunting ranges. In addition, the correct bullet choice is suitable for virtually all large and dangerous thick-skinned games, such as black or brown bears, grizzly bears, and wild hogs. When released with a bullet mass of 180grams, it moves at a velocity of 2,963 ft/s and with force energy of 4,760 joules. The 35 Whelen Ammo has a mild recoil as well as a mild muzzle blast. If you require ammo using heavy bullets of a reasonably large diameter, and that too, at an excellent velocity, then the 35 Whelen Ammo is the one for the job. In recent times, many of the major gun manufacturers now produce factory-loaded .35 Whelen ammunition.
