Rossi USA 357 Magnum Lever Action w/16" Round Blue Barrel/Walnut - 16" Barrel | Wood Stock | Blue/Black

Nice rifle accurate functions well

My Rossi 357 mag level action is fun to shoot. It did take me a while to get used to the sites, but now I can hit what I aim at.

Again, I'm really late on reviewing this rifle. Been a fan of revolvers and lever action rifles since I was a young-un watching Gunsmoke and John Wayne films with my grandparents. Saw this for a good price and had to get it to go with my Ruger GP100. A solid lever action, not the best quality and there were a few issues with mine out of the box. The stock was cracked but it wasn't a huge deal to me. Got a couple of gunsmiths in the family and had it fixed it up for free. Otherwise I would have sent it back. As for function, it definitely needed a few boxes of rounds put through it and a good cleaning to ease the action up. Since then I haven't had a single issue. If you like lever actions and can't afford the higher quality models, pick one up just be aware you could have some issues so check it out thoroughly.

As always, very simple ordering through Bud's. Nice little carbine, works fine for me. Light, easy handling, and brings out the best in the 357-Magnum with its longer barrel.

My favorite gun. Shoot 357 loaded with home cast bullets and works well. Buds says to inspect closely before signing anything, do it. This one had rust and pits in the barrel but at fifty yards it shoots as good as my wife's perfect one.

Purchased 4 years ago and I am very pleased with this rifle. Functions and cycles all types es of ammo, both 38 special and 357 magnum flawlessly. The only upgrades I have done are to the rear sight and the magazine spring and follower. There was nothing wrong with factory parts, I just wanted to upgrade for peace of mind as this is my main shtf/wrol rifle.

My second Rossi 357 just as good as the first. Just an excellent all round hunting and defense gun. Heck, I might even buy another one. Accurate, reliable; just an excellent rifle.

Very handy rifle. Have shot 38 special and 357 in it and prefer the 357. It feeds better and recoil is minimal.

As always BUDS you guys rock when it comes to shipping! OK So the; Rossi you really missed the mark on this lever action rifle. The safety on the rifle looks and feels like something that would be on a cheap toy gun and not an actual gun; safety is loose and wobbles and I got to the point I leave it on fire, due to the possibility of it breaking. Loading is absolutely horrible the edges around the loading point are sharp and scrape the heck out of you finger and the brass casing; after loading,(which is not as easy as it's competitor), the side of the rifle looks like someone sprinkled gold pixie dust on it after loading. Once the round is fired the brass (loaded side) looks like it had been put on a rough grit sander! I really want to put a dremel sander on it to smooth out the edges, but since I bought a lifetime warranty on it, that'll most likely void it. Cleaning it? Recommend you Don't break it down, after watching some videos I found out its just best to clean it without risking breaking it down. I think Rossi may have designed it like that. Firing is pretty good and is very accurate so that is a one of the few pluses. bottom line I rarely fire the gun due to the issues noted above; BUT is a great starter/teaching gun for kids or adults who have need handled a firearm. If your a novice shooter, this will disappoint.

Fun lever action carbine, one of my favorite guns.
