I hadn't really expected to, but I traded into a Rossi 92 in .45 Colt - it's the 16" carbine version.
I like the little carbine, and it seems like a potentially great truck/bumming gun, but I have a question for those of you with more Rossi experience than I have.
I load heavy .45 Colt loads for my Bisley Blackhawk. I stick to the Hornady loads in the "Ruger/TC only" section of the handbook.
Those loads crowd the .44 Mag loads in speed and pressure.
Will the little Rossi handle the same loads, or will they give it heartburn?
My first thought is that it will be fine, since Rossi also chambers the 92 in .44 mag, but was hoping for some firsthand experience.
Thanks in advance,
KR
