.35 Remington Core Lok
 

Did Remington discontinue the 200 grain .35 Remington Core-lok? I couldn't find it on their website. I use Hornady Leverevolutions, but, the cores are the staple of this round.

Never mind, my bad! I found them!

Once a highly common round,this great cal suffers what many not large sellin rounds do.It only gets made in short runs and not near what the other common rounds do.

Theres been plenty of Hornady Leverevolutions in 35Rem around by me.One gunshop had over 40 boxes in stock.

Remington has reacted to the "late great ammo run" of the last few years like everyone else, they've taken everything but the most common 5-10 top sellers (9mm, 45acp, 223, 243, 270, 7mag, 30-30 & 30-06) & now are producing the rest of their line up in limited/seasonal runs. The 35 Rem 200cl is as classic as Cadillac tail fins & ball park hotdogs but boy finding ammo for it this year has been spotty at best! For actual hunting in my 1968 336RC (gdad handed his down to me as a teen in the mid-80s) lastyear I switched to the 220grn Buffalo Bore loads but even those are hard to find & certainly much more expensive.

I would've NEVER thought finding ammo for my ol 35 was gonna be tough! :confused: But the hooplah around the gun grabbers & the sudden influx of "modern shooters" & their silly collection of black pistols & AR style guns, has sure changed the landscape for "the rest of us". Sometimes I feel like the shooting industry has turned it's back on us conventional/traditional gunners! :s6: (The ONLY auto pistols I own & care to own more of are 1911s & I doubt I'll EVER own an AR style, the damn things feel like metal bricks in the hand. If I feel compelled to own a "black rifle" I'd just as soon have an ol AK or SKS in a KILLING caliber instead of a WOUNDING caliber)

I'm so sick of the ammo shortages of late that I've decided I'm going BACK to reloading after a 2 decade hiatus from it. I still have all my equipment, just need a few new components & I'll once again be free from the marketing whims of the ammo makers! :fighting0007:

Getting to a point...
 

you have to have an accountant or be an accountant and check the inventory availability of ammunition supplies and inventory control.
I know, it's "say what" to many. Manufacturers and the small dealers are all affected by inventory control and the recent shortages. And what elementary or high school teaches that.

I do not think they discontinued it. You may be getting it confused with the .350 Remington Magnum which I think but am not sure may no longer be in Remington's cartridge catalog.

Don't know how much you are paying for them but here is Midway's price;

As far as my home state-PA- the .35 Remington is the classic deer cartridge. Seems it was bigger than the .30-30 here. And the 200 grain Core Lokt was the load. But because its been reduced to seasonal runs I think the Hornady Leverevo is the future of the round because its more available.

Goin back to reloadin ain,t gonna help you Hatchie if you can,t get the components.

At those prices Sheridan...
 

reloading would be a good option. If primers, round nose 35 Rem bullets, and 35 Rem casings were easily available.

Last I saw, there wasn't a shortage of arrows. Of course, they're making fewer aluminum arrows these days. :sheep:

How many rounds of .35 Rem are you going to shoot in a year ?!?!

I haven't seen a box of 35 rem. This past hunting season
So I don't be leave it's just a seasonal run thing.
The last box I got & seen last yr was early last yr.
Reloading stuff I can get.
You can get ammo for guns they haven't made in a 100 yrs.
Like the 30/40 krag. But guns they still make , no ammo.

Uhhhh what? The components are MUCH easier to find at all times than the factory rounds nowadays. 200gr .358 caliber bullets are always in stock at pretty much every reloader supply house. Rem makes a run of the core lokt .30 and .358 cal bullets once a month. They just don't do full cartridge assembly of some of these "older" rounds as often as they used to due to other "higher" sales of the latest popular .223 (or 5.56) sucking the supply lines like a Hoover.

Having been a loader for the past 35 years or so I can attest to this fact. Besides, reloading is always better since you can tune your rounds to perfection for YOUR particular firearm not to mention that reloading is considerably more cost effective if you shoot often.

Okay, Having done a quick search and a call to my supplier I have found that Brass is hard to come by for the .35 rem. The .35 whelen brass are plentiful but thats no help. But the .358diam bullets are just as easily found. So if you have the brass you can get the bullets. And I have absolutely NO difficulty finding primers for that particular case.

The brass I have been picking up at the gun shows. Once fired.
And a few at a GS. Here and there.
You have to grab it when you find it. Don't go looking for it
The week before opening day.
