Rossi R92 45LC 

I love going to tombstone probably one of my favorite places in all of Arizona

Why tombstone? Who?

May I inquire on information on the respective scope ? :) Same issue with them old crooked eyes here. Got the skinner mount and am currently running a Bushnell red dot on it. Scout scope would be my preferred option though. Thnx in advance! BR from Austria.

@@stefanpaulsedlak9951 Vortex scout scope.

While working through the video, I was shocked how well the 45 maintained trajectory. I thought for sure it would drop further out

I got one. 357 love it 😀

I have taken three elk in my time with a Rossi Puma .367 mag. rifle. I called that rifle my pet and it rode everywhere with me on the ranch.

I have a Marlin 1894 in 357mag. Mine stays on out to 100yds in the lowest notch, then each notch adds about 60 yards to POI. I walked it out to 300 yards on a plowed field, using an elm tree as a rest. My longest hit was a measured 240 yards on a coyote. But luck was with me, I held over and connected. Btw, the coyote was trying to pull down a calve in the lot. That's a big no-no on the farm.

Do it! I have a Pietta 45 Colt revolver, then bought one of the blued 16" versions of this carbine, I think it's now my favorite firearm I own, so much fun.

THANK YOU for getting that! I've been doing that for several videos and nobody made the connection lol

I have a new video just about done uploading with a new challenge for you guys. I think you might like it!

Can't wait to check it out!

Man is that a sweet rifle!

Thanks for watching! Yeah they are definitely in my favorites list!

Hey, I purchased the Rossi r92 38/357 ,16" barrel and the price here in Canada was $1495.00 , it cycles smooth.....works excellent out of the box........last year I could got it for half the price.........

@@kevincallahan1607 that is crazy expensive!

Happy to help the economy and your gun safe lol

Rossi is a traditional brand in the market, with over 130 years of existence.

This was such a hoot to me that it was hitting without adjustment, as you saw it was totally unexpected. Maybe with a lighter, faster, necked cartridge but not a heavy 45lc! The biggest thing I didn't take into account was the velocity added because of barrel length. I'm in the works of shooting a part two, I'm pretty excited about it

That was one of my biggest draws to it

They've made them like that since the 80's. A friend has one in 357, got it in 85.

The 44 mag powder Burns slower the powder is burning all the way down the barrel tube until the bullet exits that's why it gets hot 44 Magnum

So I learned! Very pleased with it!

Yeah mine's a 16", good call on the tripod suggestion, it's great for general use especially on soft ground but on hard surfaces it likes to dance sometimes under recoil. I'm wondering if the 357 is a flatter shooter, those 45s are like throwing a Buick lol thanks for watching!

Trail Boss will fill case to 75%.

Certain powders mitigate this issue. Ramshots true blue is very insensitive to case position.

@@uperrsc 35gns of h-777 black powder substitute would also fill it up nicely.

Lead bullets 4 life.. Sounds like you need to change powders.

@@jacobackley502 same with Titegroup

I think you found it here lol

That's what I expected, but the 225 was true to sights much further than expected! It was a good learning experience!

Well not standard issue, but common by records and word of mouth

Definitely didn't write it off lol stay tuned for part 2!

Stack them in a coffee saucer at what? 250 feet? No way you meant yards. There's adults in the room, save that stuff for the playground.

@@user-ty3vd8qr5j I meant yards. At 100 yards it puts the magazine load in a half dollar. The gun can shoot, I can shoot, more than that I don’t know what to tell you.

Thanks for watching! Sounds like a sweet setup

I love them cowboy style firearms. Hope you are still having a blast with yours! Thanks again

I figured with those heavy pistol rounds I'd start seeing drop but I was way wrong lol

@@rifleman17hmrshooter just bought one for my 10 year old. she cant wait for deer season !

@@anytirellc she won't be disappointed!!! Go get some meat!

It will more than handle pressures that you can run through your Blackhawk, those 92 actions are built strong.

I've shot the carbine more since the video... It's very impressive to say the least. I'm planning a follow up!

Well I can't really argue with you too much, none of the shooting I do is to show off perfection. I'm human and make errors, the important thing I like to show off is what most shooters will experience from regular shooting, hence why I don't really do bench shooting. By and large, the only time I really crap on a gun or piece of equipment is when there are legit major issues I spot. The bearman derringer videos are a great example of bonafide quality issues. Anyway, thanks for watching and thanks for the input!

Same thing i saw! I went back and yes, there’s like a 1/2 inch gap when pulling the trigger. The most likely reason of all that mediocre grouping... One has to gently PULL the trigger. Rest the meaty part of your finger on the trigger and when ready, just apply a little force backwards and that’s it. I’m an instructor, sniper, state champion and just a guy that loves to shoot!

No need for anything other than a 255 RNFP over 8.5 grains of unique or 6.5 grains of red dot either one of them loads will go stem to stern in a 300 lbs hog at 100 yards. Also your henry is a 336 action good for about 28k psi the Rossi is good up to 55k to 65k psi the 92 action is superior to the 336.

@@jreed10291974 No Sir, according to Company president Anthony Imperato states that the Big Boy can handle any +P rounds made in excess of 36,000 psi. As for the action, it is sorta 336, but it also not, it is a modern designed rifle meant to look and feel classic, but designed to handle much hotter loads. Not all Rossi's can go 55k to 65k psi. My Rossi R92 454 Casull loads are about 50k psi, and it's beefier than my Rossi R92 44 magnum, the idea of loading a 44 magnum to 65k psi would most likely blow the thing up. To give you an idea what a 454 casull feels like in a Rossi. A 12 gauge shot gun firing 1200 fps ammo delivers 18 ft/lbs of recoil energy. My Rossi 454 casull delivers 29 ft/lbs of recoil energy, that is beyond what a 45-70 produces and just short of a 300 winmag, and that is at 50k psi and that is stupid power. So no, I don't think the Rossi will handle 65k psi, that is just insane.

I'm planning a part 2. I've shot it since and it's a darn good rifle. I've been testing out different ammunition too. The action being sticky is an inherent thing with it, not as slick as a Henry.

@@harleyboy65 with a little bit of slick up, these are very nice carbines

I was very pleasantly surprised just how well the 45's performed. Shocked actually, I fully expected to see some drop. I will definitely bring this very nice carbine back out for a part 2

Good tip!

I edited the video to save time and keep it entertaining. Each shot was aimed, didn't think it required an extra ten minutes of viewers watching me aim

Well the crucial error on my part was anticipating drop. I shoot a lot of heavy lead, especially black powder, so that was a major influence why I expected it to drop. I was VERY pleasantly surprised how well it maintained velocity

Good call!

Check out work a day custom gun leather! He'll be able to help you out

Correct, but at the time it was still a new offering. Generally I'll make a video and schedule it for release, which can be months, depending on how many I can shoot during a period of time. I like to maintain a regular schedule so viewers can expect when to see the newest video. But, the majority of their products are tube loaders, which I particularly enjoy, but you are correct they do offer side loaders now.

Actually you won't believe this, I picked it up at a country music festival and there was a leather stand there! It fits my Ruger super Blackhawk perfectly!

Sometimes it works great, sometimes it's nothing but problems. Being using it for years, super easy to make and easy to transport. I have other tripods but this one is my favorite

@@rifleman17hmrshooter I'd recommend making a wooden plate with three holes for the legs to sit in and keep it from sinking.

I think the biggest issue I run into is the legs giving loose then I have to readjust it. The bean sock is a very solid rest

I think you'd be more stable using a truck tailgate. Very disappointing. You DON'T lower the rifle from shoulder, or remove it from the rest between shots for group. You're shooting way too fast for group. No concept of trajectory. Check out a reloading manual with midrange trajectories, you may learn something.

It's total overkill, as far as safety is concerned.

I have 2 Rossi .45lc's

But my fastest .45lc is a Ruger new model blackhawk single six, with no safeties. A little less accurate but faster than Satan.

Right! It's insane

I think so

I would think so

Depends on how much you like spending money. But it will be a Winchester, albeit made in Taiwan or Korea or Japan or... any place outside the USofA.

Get a Henry instead, it's all American made and has a life time warranty!

Work a Day Custom Gun Leather! He has a RU-vid channel and a website! He does excellent work, unfortunately RU-vid will no longer allow me to post links for his business but it's worth checking out.

I edited out lag time between shots. It gives the appearance I rushed but if I left the aim time in the video it would take forever. That being said, the rifle is VERY capable! I was shocked how well it did and is definitely worth another look!

Definitely for sure

I've seen them in rifle models as well, I prefer the carbine because it's super handy. It far exceeded my expectations!

@@rifleman17hmrshooter One thing about it is I'm looking for some 300 grain bullets for it and I guarantee you that little rifle is probably the best little rifle I ever had That's a first time I've ever had a lever action 45 caliber Rossi 92 and it beats a Henry all the pieces because of Henry cannot load from the side it can but they recommended not to then you got to load it from the tip of the magazine where the cutout is It's just way too expensive for a Henry they want at least $800 right off the bat but with a Rossi it's less than$ 699 And that's the perfect price for me I can deal with it but you can't beat a Rossi at all points of anything then you can take the firing safety switch and turn it into a plug That's a good thing because of 92 don't need no safety switch it's got a half cocked just like the regular Winchester 92 everything's on half cocked You can't beat that but I am looking for some 300 grain bullets and I've got a holster being made in a gun belt for that carbine to put on my back

Sweet, check out work a day custom gun leather, he might be able to help you out! I'm very happy with my Rossi

Right

Yeah as you saw my downfall was trying to predict the drop when, to my pleasant surprise, the base sights held true much further than I expected.

It was very stiff for me too but it eventually breaks in. What I do is load until the rim is in then push with next cartridge and repeat.

Thanks for the tip, I’ll give that a try !!@@rifleman17hmrshooter

Around 700 now

As I discovered, I anticipated drop and I was very pleasantly surprised it held zero it that range! Honestly I couldn't believe it!

@Rifleman2.0 I had a .357 rossi when I was 18 and now have one in .45LC. Just picked up a 10 year old hardly shot 464 30-30 too. Looking forward to some range time!

Oh yes definitely, since this video I've taken her out quite a bit. It's really a great carbine

Yes but I broke mine. Twice.

Ellas son las mismas, solo términos intercambiables.

Igualmente. El término adecuado es 45 Colt

Arpad limassol nagy.. 45 Colt is the correct name for the cartridge. 45 long colt is a piece of misinformation that gets spread around.

They are insanely expensive now

Not sure, haven't tried it

I would check your local laws and sport shop

That's mostly because of the editing, I cut out a lot of dead time to keep the video moving while still showing the operation

Yes it's a tube magazine

@@rifleman17hmrshooter Apparrently you are not bright enough to understand the question. Some lever action gates are blocked by cartridges and cannot be reloaded until empty. I read this was the case in the Puma models which seem identical. I also want to know the procedure to load the plus one in the chamber. Do you load one and work the action and then load the rest? Can you load several and then chamber a round? Do I have to buy one of these to find out? These basic questions should have been answered in this review, which is why it got a thumbs down.

Ok well no need to get testy. All you had to do was ask the question without being crappy about it. Not going to entertain this interaction any further because of that. If you continue to be nasty, you will be blocked.

@@conradsenior5843 Dude, what the hell is wrong with you? Tone it down a bit. Wow

@@conradsenior5843 Make a your Own Video. Don’t Blame The Maker Of The Video. No One Is Perfect.

I'm still pretty happy with it

I would check at your local sport shop

Buds had a few .357's ... 24 inch octagon barrel in stainless for a little over $900.

I actually bought mine from Rural King. It's a .44 Magnum with a 20 inch barrel and cost a little over $500.

@@RichRumple I finally got mine. 20" stainless steel in 357 magnum/38 cal.

@@barrysegal4964, great! I hope you enjoy it.
