Lever Action Reloads

[Dragoneye9]

I'm looking at getting a Rossi 357 lever action. I wanted to know if anyone had one of these and what there opinion of them is. Also I reload for my 357 and I was wondering if wadcutter bullets will cycle through a lever action okay or not. Any opions and advice is appreciated.

Are you talking about real target wadcutters?
Or Semi-Wadcutters?

Most lever-guns rely on a specific load length for the cartridge cut-off & lifter to work properly.
Full wadcutters are basically an empty case, and will not feed properly.

SWC may work, or not.
If not, a little polishing of sharp edges will usually make it so.

Bullets

Would I be better off swiching to a round nosed bullet as far as bullet feeding went?
