Since I am soon to take my first dive into the world of Remington Model 8s, I want to keep all options open. The .35 Rem. is still loaded commercially. A plus, as is the larger dia. bullet. Brass for the .30 Rem. is available, but no loaded ammo. Brass for the .32 Rem. is available, but is formed from some other case.
How difficult is it to load for all of these and what is the downside of the formed .32 Rem brass available? Compared to the .35 Rem., how do the other two stack up as good brush rounds for whitetails?
Loading for .30 and .32 Remington
Re: Loading for .30 and .32 Remington
All you have to do to form 32 Rem is resize 30 Rem. actually no different than a normal resize to reload. Ammo for both the 30 and 32 are still available at gun shows and online. Not cheap but available. The 35 definitely has more pop. But many ,many deer, Elk and Hogs have fallen to both the 30 and 32. Not a whole lot to choose between the two. I know a gentleman who took his 35 to Namibia and shot a 1500 pound Eland with it.
