Testing a Remington 158gr SJHP .357 Magnum load from a 16-inch Rossi M92 reveals impressive performance, achieving 1709.6 fps. The round exhibited significant fragmentation and penetration of 20.1 inches in ballistic gel, behaving more like a rifle cartridge due to its velocity. This challenges typical handgun round terminal ballistics expectations.
Lever action rifles offer unique advantages beyond their classic appeal. They provide logistical simplicity by chambering common handgun cartridges like .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum, which also gain significant velocity from rifle barrels. Their slim profile and higher capacity than bolt-actions make them versatile and easy to carry. Furthermore, lever actions can be legally advantageous in certain jurisdictions and possess a less threatening public perception.
This YouTube video conducts a gel test of HSM 125gr UHP .357 Magnum ammunition fired from a 16" Rossi M92 lever-action carbine. The test evaluates terminal ballistics, including penetration, retained weight, and expansion, both with bare gel and heavy clothing. High-speed camera footage provides detailed analysis of the projectile's performance. Velocities are recorded and averaged. The video aims to be an educational resource on ammunition performance, explicitly stating no firearms or ammunition are for sale and that the content adheres to YouTube policies.
This TFB TV episode, 'The Two Way Range (Part Two)', delves deeper into the combat experiences of veterans, focusing on the nuances of returning fire in Operation Enduring Freedom deployments in Helmand province, Afghanistan. It discusses modern infantry challenges such as strict rules of engagement and positive identification. The video features footage shot by veterans, with the exception of a brief clip from Dvids. Specific firearms highlighted include the S&W Model 13L and Rossi M92.
This video features a ballistic gel test of Fiocchi .357 Magnum 125gr XTP ammunition. The test is conducted using two distinct firearms: a Smith & Wesson Model 13L revolver with a 4-inch barrel and a Rossi M92 rifle with a 16-inch barrel. The testing aims to measure key performance metrics of the ammunition, including velocity, penetration depth, expansion or fragmentation characteristics, and retained projectile weight. The video aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of how this specific ammunition performs when fired from both a handgun and a carbine-length firearm.
This review tests Remington's 158gr SJHP .357 Magnum ammunition fired from a 16-inch Rossi M92 carbine. The carbine significantly boosts velocity (1,775 FPS) compared to revolvers, resulting in deep penetration (18.5 inches average) and substantial expansion, even through heavy clothing. While effective for trail defense, the increased velocity can cause fragmentation, potentially complicating wound channels.
This video focuses on the Rossi M92 Ranch Hand, a lever-action pistol chambered in .40 Colt. The title suggests a review or demonstration of this specific firearm. Key aspects likely covered include its operation, handling characteristics, and potentially its suitability for certain applications given its unique form factor. The content will appeal to collectors of lever-action firearms, those interested in handguns with classic designs, and potentially individuals exploring niche firearm categories.
