Ryan,

Is there any way for you to get some .35 Remington ammo in even though you don't currently stock it? I just picked up a well used Remington Model 8 Peerless grade D in .35 Rem and could use a local source of ammo for her.

Cheers,

Ian
 
Ian - I'm one of Ryan's suppliers. I checked with the Remington factory and there's no stock available. Production is scheduled for March so these should be by the begining of April. If you're ok to wait a few months, you can ask Ryan to order it for you.
 
That is great! I will do that next time I am in the store. I may be the closest gun nut to him! Which is good and bad! My line of credit doesn't seem to be getting any smaller... Anyone else closer than 6km to the store?

Cheers,

Ian
 
Ryan,

What are the specs on the .35 Remington ammo that you have? I have heard that these model 8's shouldn't be fired with the Hornady Leverevolution because they are a bit too hot. They should be kept to just over 2000 ft/sec. for the 200 gr. ammo.

Thanks,

Ian

15 minutes @ 95 on 38 .. *wippishhhhh*

I think i have some 35 remington brass around here somewhere , ill have to go digging , so give me a day or two .. unlesss your not into reloading .
 
Don't reload at the moment. Too many guns to buy still before I sink a boat load into a nice reloading set-up! Within the next 2-3 years after I have my "gun base list" filled, I will buy everything I need to roll all of my own. I barely even get out to shoot now as that ammo money could go towards the next NEED on my list!

If you are giving it away, I will gladly take it. I have all of the brass from the ammo that I have gone through so that I will be well stocked when that day does finally come.

Cheers,

Ian

Be there soon to pick some up for my Remington Model 14 in .35 Rem! The lovely wifey got me a $100.00 gift card from you guys!

I have it all apart right now as I needed a couple of parts that just came in on Friday, so I only have pre clean-up pics and they aren't very good but here it is:

Beautiful rifle the one I have has no scroll work but they are great shooters my grandfather carried the one I have for moose hunting well into his 70 s
 
Thanks. I can't wait to get it out and see how she does. The fancy grades D, E & F are quite rare. This one is from about July 1909 looking at the serial numbers and production totals and doing a bit of math. The production totals for the model 8 were just under 70,000 made and there is talk of only a few thousand made up in these grades. They were also available in 4 different calibers. .25, .30, .32, .35 Remington. That makes a D grade in .35 pretty damn rare and maybe into the hundreds of units ever built, at the very least 1-2 thousand tops!

Oh and it is true that the internal components were hand pollished on the D, E & F grades! They shine like they are chrome plated compared to my regular model 8 from 1908.

I may have it completely, professionally restored one day to bring it back to its original beauty.

Once I get it all back together, I will have to do a posting in the sporting arms/antique arms section with good post clean-up pictures and a range report.

Cheers,

Ian
