Nice pick up Andy,

I really enjoy shooting my 357 lever Rossi. You'll find with the octagonal barrel, it feels literally like a 22 shooting it.

Enjoy

Nice lever gun Andy, really good looking stock there

.357 for me, but only because I already reload for that caliber... and of course... you can shoot 38's too.

The manual says to not shoot 38spl that is below 158gr because it will cause feed failures. I'll just have to play around and see what it likes.

Yours may balk at the 38's on loading [ depending on the bullet head shape ]. it may run em slicker than snot. It's a crap shoot. The cartidge carrier can be adjusted to the 38's but I stick strictly to 357's in my Rossi/

If you shoot 38 in it, make sure you clean the ring left in the chamber as it can interfere with loading 357 afterward.

I was only considering 38s if I couldn't find 357. I'll probably stick to 357. Of course, this begins the process of finding a 357 revolver.

You cannot go wrong with a ruger gp100.

Of course, one has to have a matching caliber revo to go with it.
I fully agree.
