Re: Spring Kit and 357 OAL
Posted: 01 Jul 2022 05:23
I've swapped the ejector spring and the action is incredible smooth.
Been at the range yesterday and noticed that the Rossi doesn't feed some of my 357s (handloaded) when I go really fast on the lever. If I go slow, no problem at all.
38 special is no problem, no matter how fast I work the lever. I‘m rather new to lever actions, but looking at the action and how the bullets are chambered O sure understand that those guns(1892 must be finicky on OAL.
I'm using .357 cases from different manufacturers like GECO, Magtech, Sellier & Bellot, PPU, so I can image that there are slight differences in OAL.
Is there a general recommendation to the .357 OAL for the Rossis or should I figure out through trial and error? OAL of my bullets is below maximum https://bobp.cip-bobp.org/uploads/tdcc/ ... num-en.pdf(40,39mm, 1,590" , but I can't tell exactly right now.
