I think your load of 3.5 Win 231 should be a light sweet shooter. Let us know how they work out for you.

I'll bet your load of 3 gr BE will be about equal to my 3.5 of 231 since the Hornady manual indicates both 3.1 gr of BE and 3.5 gr 231 will give you 700 fps. It shoots well in my 28 and 67 (but what doesn't). I'll compare it to the 148 wc to see if there's a marked difference in the 36 and let you know. I'm looking to keep the 36 for a lifetime (had it since 69) so I want to keep the loads light.
