Re: Am I doing it wrong? Rossi 1892 44 Mag
Heres another quesiton though, I am currently thinking the 16" barrel for the lighter weight, handier handling. Should I consider the 20 or even the 24 for the sight radius, or added tube length, velocity increase? Are they worth the balance shift farther forward and the weight/size increase? I...

Re: Am I doing it wrong? Rossi 1892 44 Mag
Thanks folks I appreciate the feedback
I would love to start casting bullets, but the Wife Acceptance Factor (WAF value) on melting lead in or near the house is so far down the scale I would never recover from it...

Re: Lee hand loader?
I used a friends before and thought it would be really neat if i were reloading on the road. I couldn't think of a legitimate reason for that though. I personally love my lee classic 4 hole turret though, and considering the normal lee 4 hole turret can be had for about $75 if you hunt around I woul...

Re: Am I doing it wrong? Rossi 1892 44 Mag
i think the new little rossi's are a 1:20 twist, faster than the marlins and generally good with the heavier loads from what I have heard. from what I saw in my reloading info a 19 grain charge of h110 or win296 with a 300 wfn lbt round should be in the 14-1500 fps range out of a 16" barrel. no...

Re: Am I doing it wrong? Rossi 1892 44 Mag
Generally I spend most of my time bow hunting, so 40 yards or less is my usual shot. Revolvers, bows, etc all are plenty at home at that range, but I would like to have something that will reach out to 100 or so that is light and easy to bring through the woods etc. I have bolt action guns for longe...

Am I doing it wrong? Rossi 1892 44 Mag
So, I really want a 44 mag 16" rossi 92 in stainless. I love the light weight and how the rifle handles, my state (Michigan) is considering pistol caliber carbines in the areas that are otherwise only muzzle loader or shotgun (and handgun) for deer hunting, and it would nicely compliment my 44 ...
