Nice. Gotta love the velocity of pistol cartridges in a rifle barrel.
I’m gets some impressive speed out of my 16.5” 45 colt.

I shoot 180 xtp in my Rossi 92 44mag. Just loaded, 240gr to try. Super fun gun, cheap to shoot like a 22, big fireball at dusk.

Road tripping I truck camp. Just pull off on some side road, find some gravel pit. My insomnia means, I sleep minimal in the truck, probably zero in a motel. Nice to have the 44 or canuck shorty/12ga for blackies that like the smells on the coleman stove. More peace of mind, had to shoot over one young black once, probably still running.

OMG my last holy grail rifle. But I still like my Ruger .44 carbine.
