Just what is it?
I just looked it up in Wiki. It is a medium-powered rifle cartridge.

I have it all. Goes with the half dozen .25-35 rifles I own. Also have the dies, a pile of brass, and hundreds of bullets. Shot my first deer with a .25-35 in a Winchester carbine in 1966.
The .25-35's look nice right next to the .219 Zipper.

What a rich gun culture we have here in the USA, despite who we elect as POTUS.

The .25-35 killed one of the largest Grizzly Bears ever found in the continental US.

For that reason alone, a Winchester 94 in .25-35 is on my "must-own" list!
The ammo seems to be unavailable at the moment; just wondered if anybody knew where it was in stock.

This is a cartridge that would definatly be a good one to setup to reload for. The ammo companies make runs once in a blue moon.
Thanks dkf
I looked at ammotogo a few days ago and they didn't have any in stock at that time........off to go order some.

Good idea. The article didn't say if the big bear charged the shooter of not.
I shoot 25-35. I would not use against a grizzly even out of something belt fed. It is a good cartridge to reload. Its ineffeciency makes it interesting, that along with the accuracy.
