I had a Rossi 92 in .44 Mag, that I usually shot with .44WCF equivalent loads (200 FP/8.5gr. of Universal), and it was nothing but fun to shoot. With full-tilt .44 Mag loads, it wasn't as much fun, as it had a steel buttplate, but it shot well, well enough to kill three deer with it (AA#9 and a 240XTP).

I had to rework the little thing so recoil wouldn't make the mag tube slide out of the receiver, but that was easy work, and the action is slick and smooth with a little shooting. It was a fun gun, then someone stole the danged thing. The serial number is MO36565, if you see that one in a pawn shop or wherever, it's a stolen gun.


You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
