200gr PSP in lever action 35rem

[jpm2953]

if I were starting new with factory bullets I would probably get Hornday Flex tip and Leverevolution powder. Seems like a good compromise. I picked up a hundred or two Sierra 200gr RN bullets when I was there a few weeks ago. they've worked fine for me and no need to develop a new load.

Midway has the 200gr sierra RN on sale so I'm going to just order those

View attachment 1350875 View attachment 1350874 Buddy gave me about 500 of these .358 core-lockt psp to load for my 35 rem. Would these be ok to run in a lever action. I'm thinking they would be ok? They have a soft lead tip and I doubt they stack up perfectly in line in the tube

Those are more appropriate for a 35 bolt gun, i.e. 35 Whelen, 358 Winchester or the like. Or a single shot 35 rem. Would also work in those old 35 rems that were magazine fed but not a tube fed lever gun.
