    Range report 170B 35 Remington


    Got the Bausch & Lomb on and nicely zeroed at 100. The load was a 200 grain Sierra and 45 grains Hodgdon LVR lit with Remington 9 1/2 primers. OAL 2.49. Cases were Hornady and Remington (10 of each).
    Recoil and muzzleblast weren't terrible, recoil was a nice pop on the shoulder. Barrel heat was very mild and zilch copper fouling.
    The largest group was 2 inches. Blasted trigger... The smallest 11/16. Of the 6, 3 shot groups fired 3 were an inch or less. Really hard to find fault with these results, especially given the tug of war trigger.
    Such a good rifle. The cases used are now fired x15 and still look great.
    It would appear that I have my deer/bear load. Still wish I could get a couple hundred 200 grain Core Lokts...

    Tried some Speed 180's and some Hornady 180 sspb's. She does not like either. Groups opened to over 3 inches at 100. Is ok though. The .35 Remington just looks wrong without a nice fat 200 grain round nose.
    Just saying...
