Some may know that Rossi

If you didn't know it's a clone of Marlins 336/1895 model and comes in a few calibers and 2 different barrel lengths.
A 20" and a trapper with a 16.25".
Well a couple days ago I came across a trapper in one of my favorite calibers.... drum roll please.
The mighty 444


I have 2 Marlins in this particular cal., and as I stated above have no need for another, but wanted one.
So now I have 3 with 3 different barre lengths this 16, an 18.5 ported and a 22".
I suspect this one will be as load if not loader than the ported version.

We are in SC visiting the youngest daughter and family, and will be headed home tomorrow. I have no ammo here to try so a range report will have to wait for a couple days.
I will say though the action is as smooth as an Henry I own.
Trigger just a bit stiff, but crisp. Guessing I'd say around 4 lbs. The furniture looks pretty good to comparing to some of the older Rossis I've seen in the past.
