It has come into existence.
I have been well pleased with the new Rossi Trapper and decided to adopt another.
This one though is a pistol caliber, oh which one you might ask.
I went with the 357, and the first thing I noticed is that it isn't nearly as butter smooth as the mighty 444 model. Not rough at all, just not as slick, but as much range time as I anticipate with this that should change pretty quick. I'd compare it to the newer Marlins I've tried lately.
The trigger is a different animal also, on the 444 there is a little set notch where the trigger will stay till you add the little extra pressure. This one is just a nice crisp break.
I did walk out back and put a few rounds through it without getting blowed away.
It holds 8 rds. in the tube, before going out I loade 8 rounds, 2 each of 4 different profiles and it cycled all without a hitch.
Okay, 8 rds. of the 180gr purpose on the plates from 30 to 40 yds. Then loaded 8 of those cheap 158gr hp, and at about 30 yds., and put them on paper.
I'm pleased and say this should be a fun gun for sure.
