I saw a 35 Marlin that had been rechambered to 35 lever pull. What is a 35 lever pull? Is it between a 35 Remington and 356?

You are probably refering to the 35 lever power. This was the 30/40 Krag neck expanded to take a 35 cal bullet, shortened to 2.2 inches and the rim turned to .500 inches, then fire formed to an almost straight case. It has a case capacity of 3.90 CC's while the case capacity of the 35 Rem is 3.35 CC's. It has .17 CC's more case capacity than the .356 or .358 Winchesters.
