OK. I am looking at 2 Rossi single shot rifles.
1 is a .44 Mag, the other is in 7.62X39.
I have heard, and it is a fact, that the NEF Handi-Rifle will not fire the many versions of cheap military ammo on the market. As the main purpose of this gun is a "fun gun" or some call them "plinker's" , I do not want to buy $20.00/per 20 rds ammo for it just to make it go bang.
QUESTION: Will the Rossi rifles fire the Mil-Surp ammo?
$30/box stuff is ok for deer hunting. But not for just shootin at misc. jugs/cans/paper.
As for the .44 Mag, a freind of mine is set up to reload for that round, and can make up some 44 Special grade target / plinking rounds for about $15 per 50 rds.
I have also concidered getting another NEF in .357 Mag. But would like to give the Rossi rifles a try, and oddly enough there is no listing in .357 from Rossi.
Does anyone have experiance with any of the above mentioned rifles in the mentioned callibers?
I know from a freind the Rossi .223 and .243 rifles shoot OK. Not as tight a groups as my NEF, but then again, my NEF was a bull bbl. !
