Couldn't find a pic on my phone to post but it makes better bullets than I do if that makes sense.

Re: I think that the RG4570 is my favorite Rossi
Actually, I haven't killed a hog or shot the R92 357 Mag since I did that load work. I own a lot of rifles, more than most gun shops have in stock, so I kind of float around with choice. I owned 70 plus rifles at one point in my life so I culled about half of them. Unfortunately, it made matters worse and I'm embarrassed to state how many I actually now own.GRV01 wrote:Do you find yourself reaching for it more than the 357 you developed that bacon-makin' load for when ridding yourself of the offending porkers?

Re: I think that the RG4570 is my favorite Rossi
I did just cast a bunch of the 190-grain bullets, they are to be distributed among several rifles; Marlin 336D 35 Rem, Rem 600 35 Rem, Rossi 92 357 Mag, and Sav 170B 35 Rem.GRV01 wrote:Do you find yourself reaching for it more than the 357 you developed that bacon-makin' load for when ridding yourself of the offending porkers?
For all around hog killing on my place, I would consider the 30-30 Win, 32 Win Spl, and 35 Rem as the best balance of performance. With age, I will probably wander less to other hunting opportunities and one day it will boil down to one of my favorites chambered in one of those cartridges.

Re: I think that the RG4570 is my favorite Rossi
I was in a LGS over in Corbin KY couple weeks back, just up the road from the first KFC.
Asked if they had any 30-30 brass.
They went back to the storage room and brought out a case of federal premium 30-30 brass.
Gave me a price of $16.92 per 50 case bag, came to $18.00 with tax.
So I bought the entire box, 250 cases.
They had one case left so i left it for someone else.
Fed Ex had just delivered them that morning.
Midway has the same brass for a bit higher,

Re: I think that the RG4570 is my favorite Rossi
Sounds like a deal.
I'd have problems turning it down at that price.
Did you buy 250 cases or 250 pieces of cartridge brass?
250 x $18? or 5 x $18? I don't think I could afford $4500 worth of brass at one whack.
Did you leave a case of 1 or 5 or 10 bags or a single cartridge case for the next guy?

50 per bag, and 5 bags in a box.
So I bought one box, 5 bags at 50 per bag, $90 .00
They had another box in storage.
Federal ships them out 5 bags per box, dont know why they do that.

Reminds me of when i stopped by a small gun and pawn shop last winter, the shop is way out in the middle of nowhere.GRV01 wrote:"Yeah, hi, look, i need one 30-30 case.

An old guy came in, he walked about 5 to 8 miles.
He said he wanted a number #4 12 gauge shotgun shell, just one.
They said we dont have any #4, but we have #6, oo buck, and everything else.
He said no, it has to be #4.
then he turned around and left.
