Hunting with your Rossi

kjeff,
I have a Rossi lever in .44mag. It has accounted for several mule deer, (mostly doe permits) a couple of wild hogs (one 350 pounder) and a truckload of jackrabbits.
The '92 copy is easy to carry and handle, has plenty of quick backup shots in the magazine, for most hunting it is plenty accurate, and is just plain fun to shoot.
The .44mag is a potent cartridge and versitle to handload for many different hunting situations.

44 SS

Is your Rossi 44 a Stainless Steel version? I am looking at getting a new Rolssi 44 SS after the first of the year. I love the 44 mag.

Don Jackson Remington Magnum

remington magnum,
Since jeff mentioned that his is stainles, I'll mention mine is blued.

Ganjiro, That goat hunting looks like great fun!! years ago I had a rossi puma in .357 and enjoyed shooting it too.
Whats' the scoop on feral goats? do you have to buy permits/licences, or are they open season all the time?
Just curious.

Most areas no closed season on goat & pigs especially the neighbor islands, but a hunting license is required my resident including upland bird stamp $30, I beleive a non resident is $99.

Nice matching pair you have there, Ganjiro. A shame Rossi discontinued the 357 models

This was one of the last from Sports South, I tried getting a matching R44S stainless 44 mag but nowhere to be found in the whole country. They're great guns especially in this chambering.
