I have a good friend that lucked into a deal when K-Marts were closing down in our area many years ago. They put their firearms on close-out and he purchased several rifles, including a Marlin 336 in 35 Remington.
Unfortunately, he is one of those people who gets jittery when he falls below what I consider an exorbitant amount of ammunition for any of the calibers he owns.
He has a few hundred rounds and for some reason, believes he needs more. He asked if I would reload him some if I could find the components. Of course he has no brass so I am looking for some of that which might be the most difficult. I have some good powders on hand and many thousand LR primers. Doing a quick look for bullets and some good choices for some lighter jacketed and heavier hard cast (BHN ~22), so I don't think they will be a problem. Found a few sets of 3 die sets for reasonable too.
What velocities should I limit hard cast to?
Thanks!
