Want to put a sling on my rossi 45 colt lever action.Was looking at an uncle mikes full band set up,the unit that goes over the ammo tube is for tubes from, .645 to. 660 dia tubes.Will this fit on the rossi 45 tube?
Have a gun smith tap a swivel through the barrel band. JUST like they did on the Rio Grande rifle.
If you have access to a pair of dial calipers or better yet digital calipers, it should be easy to measure the OD of the magazine tube. I agree it would be helpful if they listed what various rifle tube OD's were, but it's possible that the OD varies by year of manufacture. Good luck![/QUOTE

You can get a set of inexpensive digital calipers from Harbor Freight for ten bucks.
Measure twice, cut once.
Don't always trust the internetz to give you the correct answer...
