UPDATE: Rossi Ranch Hand Mares Leg

I had the same fitting issue with my Boyds stock. I drilled the hole out and press fit some 3/8" dowel rod with a little glue into it. After it dried I redrilled the hole and it fits nice and tight now.

Did you have a problem aligning the holes. When I get my stock back from Boyds and fit it to my receiver I will have to redrill the hole for the tang screw, seems like the hole is angled?
 
The hole was too far forward on the stock. It's slightly angled. I just used a paint stir stick as a shim to adjust the angle of the stock until it was close on my $40.00 drill press. Marked and center drilled the hole and used a drill bit that was the same diameter as the screw (iirc it was a letter sized drill bit). Somehow I managed to do it right the first time. My plan was to drill it out bigger if I fudged up.
 
Is there any levers that can be straight swapped into those?
Just brought home mine and its the first order of buisness, getting a regular loop.

With the ongoing prices for gunsmiths around here, by the time i have the loop reworked and reblued i will be way over the price of a new one.

Cost me $60 or so for cut reweld and reblue-as I recall - but I had to wait until it a was scheduled with other similar jobs. May have been a bit more or less. Levers are very hard to find .

I will have to look up with local gunsmiths but i have low expectations.
Lots of very good guys around here, but the price is kindof up there.

Just took her out for her first shoot, 38 special feels pretty weak but fed flawlessly, once i burn the two boxes its 357 all the way.
I shot a box of 357 and the feeding issue showed up after 20ish rounds and seemed to get worse.

The feed issue will get adressed first thing, then a full lenght buttsock is the next order of buisness, its fun to shoot as is but it got old after 100rds and we are allowed to make it a sbr here ( something fun for once) so why not!
 
Any one remove the goofy safety? I see you can get a replacement plug or a one with a peep sight on it. Took mine out yesterday put in a brass plug for now. The peep sight I'm not a fan of for the bushwacking I do maybe a ghost ring for fast reaction time.
