Rossi Rifleman

Got my RG4570B back from repair. It feeds better and isn't chewing brass anymore. The screws still shake loose at each shooting session. I'm considering putting them in the freezer, then screwing them in cold. Maybe ... Maybe not. Otherwise, it's gonna be locktite time. I have made the stretch and added a Magnum Research BFR in .45-70 to the "family". That thing's a BEAST! But it's a FUN beast! I've always wanted a levergun/revolver pair in the same caliber!

One well-placed round is worth 20 spray-and-pray.

Yeap, seems like it is time for Loctite if they are coming out that quick. I would start by applying it with a toothpick.
That is not a pair that I would have come up with for a rifle/revolver combo!

Please keep us posted on your shooting after the Loctite and that revolver!

Ranch Dog,

The MRI BFR .45-70 is fun! If your idea of fun is a handgun that will rock you back on your heels and make the other shooters at the range peek around to see who's makin' all that racket, that is! My biggest challenge right now is conquering my flinch reflex!

You know what they say .... Practice, practice!
