My first deer rifle was a Marlin M 336 in 35rem, got it when I was twelve, shot my first deer with it when I was fourteen and have taken many with it since. This rifle also started a many of young hunters also in taking their first deer. It mostly stays in the safe now days, Im forty five now, I pulled it out of the safe last year, loaded up some ammo for it, checked the scope, then was lucky enough to shoot a big doe the first morning I took it out. Afterwards, I gave it a good cleanning and put it back in its spot in the safe, I think this year, I might do the same with my fathers old Marlin M 336 in 30-30, its been about twenty years since its seen any action. I havent tried any of the lever evelution ammo yet, I guess I would if I used them more.

I have a Marlin 336 in 30-30 that I killed my first five deer with. I shoot the Leverevolution ammo as well, 1 1/2'' at 100 yards. One day I hope my kids will take there first deer with it.

I have two 35rem's an old Model #14 and a 336D. The Marlin gets hand loaded 200gr CLRN bullets thathave a MV of2200fps and are still 10% lower pressure levels than the 30-30win.

I haven't tried the LE ammo yet but you can see why, I hand load.

Mine is a pistol, lone Eagle. Very accurate. Hornady 180 gr SSPB is what I shoot in it. Two years ago I took my first handgun deer with it. It is a great deer killer.

Yeap got the 336 in 35 Rem I love that gun. Its probably one of the most accurate guns I own out to 200 yards. WOuldn't hesitate for a second to grab it to go elk hunting.

I too have a .35 Remington I shoot Federal Premium 165s through it, I do have a box of the Leverevelution in 165s and notice they hit more to the right but are dead on up and down. Other than that I love the old 760 35

Great post, as I just was admiring my Marlin 336C in .35 Remington last night.

I noticed I was low on ammo, usually shot 200gr. Core-Lokt, but just this afternoon I took a trip to Gander Mountain and picked up some Lever Evolution in 200gr. They look nice, I plan on shooting them sometime next week.

My .35 was my first deer gun as well. Bought it off of my neighbor when I was 14, so over 8 years ago. I have taken many deer with that gun. I have many other guns now, so it doesn't get as much attention as it should. It is always great to take it out for a hunt, and I'm thinking I will like this LE ammo, and hunt with it more this upcomming season.

Good post, even better gun. :D

I took mine out when I sighted in my new KRB. It was dead on and 1 1/2" groups at 75 with out a sand bag. The Leverrev ammo is great.

I have had a 336-35 Rem for 10 years now. It is my go to rifle. After 9 years of hunting with it I broke the whole gun down last year and refinished the stock so it looks brand new again. I have a Bushnell Legend 2x7 riding on top. I am getting a 1.25-1.50 group at 100 yards. With LR-200 gr I would not hesitate to take a 200 yard shot.

i've got a marlin 336 in .35 rem. , it's the second one i've ever owned , i sold the first one back in 94' when funds got low ( didn't want too but i did it anyway ) . bought a new one in 96' when the funds situation got better , it was the newer version with the wrap around checkering . ain't gonna do that again , i'm never getting rid of another .35 caliber again ,
she's a accurate rifle when you use her for what she was intended for and gives a great wound channel with really great bleeding , i just got some leverrevolution ammo for it but haven't had the chance to put them through her yet. but from the regular ammo's accuracy , i'm thinking it should be a very good combination.

I have a Marlin 336 in the .35 and it is a really good gun. I don't use it much anymore because I have several other ones to chose and it is hard to shoot all of them. Though when someone needs to borrow a gun it is the one we usually loan out since there is not much you can do to hurt them. They are accurate and it doesn't kick too much.

I had a Marlin 336C in 35 Rem back in the seventies. Nice rifle...long since gone. My brother hunts with Rem model 141 in 35 rem. He and I were moose hunting 2-3 years back and he DRILLED a small bull (708 dressed), with his 35, his him straight on right in the boiler room. The bull turned and ran about 20 yards and balled up! He was using 200grain? rem corelokt.

I grew up hunting in Pa. In the early '50's, many, many hunters carried a .35 Rem--Remington 14's, 141's, or Marlins. The .35had a reputation for killing "far beyondit's size". I don't know the reason, butI suspect that it was because of the fine 200 grainsoft point bullets that were factory loaded by Rem and Win. The .35 Remis an excellentshort/medium range caliber for deer or black bear.
