I am loading some 35 Remington with 200 cast bullets and wanted to use BLC(2). Could someone suggest some load date for this powder.

I’m using the RCBS 200gr FNGC. Sized to .360”, 50/50 w/w -straight lead, Hornady gaschecked. Weighs 218gr as cast.
My powder charge is 39.0gr of BLC2.
This isn’t a mild load! Runs 2,050fps. Use with caution, work up. Start at 35.0gr. It’s not “hot”, however. Cycles effortlessly.
My rifle is a ‘70’s vintage Marlin. Older designs may not be safe with this load.
My rifle shoots this load under 2”-5shots at 100yds. It’s the only load I use in the .35Rem now. I started using this load after jacketed bullets became unavailable following the ObamaAmmogeddon. Before, I used the Rem 200gr Corelokts over H4895.
Suggest you look over at castboolits.com for more/better cast bullet info.
Also, a lot of .35Rem love at marlinowners.com
