A quick search yields the following:
The original, circa 1900, handloader cautioned pressure limit for the 0.25-35 was 33k psi. It was designed for a 117 bullet, but other weights were as follows: 60, 87 and 100 along with the 117 grain typical. I had thought the older 0.25-35 version was less that the 6.2X52R. GR(Du Pont Gallery Rifle #75?, 1904) or "Marksman" was the powder of choice and it was topped with an 80 or 111 grain lead bullet William V. Lowe attempted to counter Winchester's 0.25-35 wit the ".25-37" but Marlin adopted it as ".25-36" as .25-36 Marlin with an "A"(black powder version) and "B"(semi-smokless). Last the 0.25 Remington was a rimless version of the 0.25-35 Winchester.
Kind Regards,
