.35 Winchester Self-Loading

The .35 Winchester Self-Loading (.35SL / .35SLR / .35WSL) or 8.9x29mmSR is an American rifle cartridge. == Overview == Winchester introduced the .32SL and .35SL in the Winchester '05 self-loading rifle as a centerfire cartridge version of the Winchester '03. The .35SL proved popular at first with the general public as a short-range deer and black bear hunting cartridge, but was soon superseded by the introduction of the more powerful .351SL in the Winchester '07. Many now consider the .35SL inadequate as a deer round, but it may still be suitable for coyote or similar medium-sized game at close ranges. When first introduced however, the notable firearm expert Townsend Whelen noted the .35SL cartridge as displaying similar ballistics as the .38-40 black powder, low-pressure cartridge. == Dimensions == == See also == List of cartridges by caliber Table of handgun and rifle cartridges 9mm caliber == References == == External links == Winchester's .35 WSL Cartridges, not .351 WSL Archived 2016-10-22 at the Wayback Machine .35 Winchester Self-Loading (.35 WSL) .35 Winchester Self-Loading / .35 WSL
