Follow up to the thread.  The Rossi has been running great, no problems.

I did however decide to pick up a Miroku Winchester 1892 in .357 Magnum since starting this thread.  It is as you might suspect a very fantastic rifle!  As much as I like my Rossi, the Winchester (miroku) is head and shoulders nicer.

I don't think Marlin makes a 45LC yet?

A carbine in .357. I like .45 Colt, but it is archaic. .357 is so much more versatile.

As a reloader, I find both cartridges to be very versatile.  The 45 colt is everything from mild to wild.  The latter easily equal to 44 magnum.

I took my 24” Rossi 357 out this weekend and was ringing steel at 200 really easy.

Once I figured out the right hold, got a couple hits on the 300 yard. Quite surprised how flat it shoots.

It’s going to get the safety delete, a little internal polish, and better sights.
