Try this, change to the Rem RN 200gr jacketed bullet. It was designed for use in guns like the 35 remington and will expand at pistol velocities if you push it.
Thanks for the information, Rapier......but how do you get the .35 Remington bullet to sit low enough to allow cylinder rotation and still crimp effectively? Do you use a taper crimp die?
After all has been said, I'm thinking I might just go back and experiment with some 140 & 158 grain JHP & JSP bullets. I shot a ram with Speer's 146 grain SWCJHP bullet (no long made), and he took about 4 steps and folded....bullet passed through, and there was no tracking job needed. I'm thinking that that load would work on an average size whitetail as well.
Thanks to all for your input.
