Question for those lucky enough to have 35's. Is your rifle a Savage or Stevens/ trade name? Is it a 170 or 170B?
Just curious as no one seems to know how many 35's were made or which version. Mine is a C prefix 170B.
Ranch Dog, just curious as you shoot lead from your 35, what are your bore/groove measurements? Mine slugs .351/.358. The rifling looks very shallow and the lands aren't typical Enfield pattern. The sides of the lands are tapered. Kinda look like flat pyramids. Never saw a Savage barrel like it. Happily, her bore is very smooth and picks up no noticeable copper fouling. Accurate and fast too.
Thanks all!
