Rossi Tuffy .410 Update - Hornady Critical Defense

[@leonlamar8341]

The length of your video sir is superb. Wish more reviews on KZbin were this short. Thank you for your excellence and professionalism.

[@RidersRange]

Leon, thanks for watching and commenting. As I recall, that's the shortest video I've ever done. I believe the original Rossi video was in excess of thirteen minutes.

[@Valorius]

My reviews are typically 4 minutes or less

[@01rcpena]

Another great video.I have the Rossi .410/.22 combo that I bought several months ago from Academy. I enjoyed it so much that I bought another for $149.00. Shoots Remington 2 1/2 in. rifled slugs and Winchester Super X 3 in. 000 Buck just fine. Use the .22 lr barrel to shoot Aguila Super Colibre .22lr for pest control. Keep up the terrific vids.

[@RidersRange]

Ruby, I like this Rossi enough that I would consider the combo, if I found one at the right price.

[@HillbillyMusings]

Nice video sir! Wish I had a range like yours!

[@RidersRange]

Hillbilly Musings, thanks for watching. I feel very fortunate to be able to have this range on my property.

[@stevepark2643]

These defense loads shoot well out of this gun. 15 yards is probably further away than most people will have to fire in defense. Most likely indoors. Great little gun it seems. Awesome video Sir! Thanks for the content. 👍🏻

[@RidersRange]

Thank you for watching.

[@michael9659]

Badass little gun. Great video!

[@RidersRange]

Thanks for watching.

[@scottmorgan1016]

Thanks for shooting that ammo. I looked at this 410 but got the I think it's the Hatfield 410 for the wooden stock. Been wanting to try this ammo for kicks. Its funny these single shot shotgun videos are some of the most viewed on my little channel. But I do like them.

[@RidersRange]

Scott, I don't know why they are so popular, but in two months this has become my #1 most watched review.

[@scottmorgan1016]

@@RidersRange I know my channel has had the same results as yours. It must be the times right now and maybe new gun owners and this is what most can find? But like you I get more hits on single shotguns and the Spectrum pistol than most other videos.

Have exact same gun. Dropped a rabbit on the run the other day at 30 yards (#6 shot, 2-1/2” shell) - he was down instantly, dead in his tracks. These are sweet shooters.

Larry, sweet shooters - AND affordable.

I have one. Really bought it for rattlesnakes..but have not seen any snakes lately but I still enjoy it alot.

[@RidersRange]

I imagine it would work good for snakes. Some call it a "garden gun" just for that purpose.

[@SCARbite-kd1bf]

I found one for 95$ is that a good price for the Rossi Tuffy?

Great price. I've never seen the Tuffy priced that low.

[@genegoodwin8925]

I wonder if a extender is available for the stock. It seems if it were a couple of inches longer it would be more comfortable to shoot. I want a Tuffy, and if I can't find an extender for the stock, I'll get some plastic and make one.

[@RidersRange]

Gene, have you checked the Rossi website? They offer a stock for the Tuffy that looks like it has a larger spacer, but I didn't find any specs.

[@genegoodwin8925]

@@RidersRange Yes, I did but I didn't see any for the Tuffy. They showed longer stocks for their 22lr's but not their single shot shotgun. Thanks for trying.

[@RidersRange]

@@genegoodwin8925 here's a link. This one looks to be a couple inches longer than the original stock. I may even order one. www.shoprossi.com/rossi-single-shot-modular-tuffy-stock-black-10025963

Is 95$ to low for the Rossi Tuffy?

[@RidersRange]

It's a GREAT price.

[@jdoboy6835]

I tried to read most of the comments for added info, But,,,,,, did you shoot the 'defense' shells with choke in or out? Full choke? And,,,,, I'd love to see & know if it'll shoot slugs,,, say out to 50 yds. If so, I'd buy one for my G-kids,,, for Turkey & deer.? THANKS

[@RidersRange]

My Tuffy is the 18.5" barrel model with a fixed choke barrel. I don't know exactly what constriction, if any, this barrel has, but it doesn't have a removable choke. The 26" barrel Tuffy Turkey model does have a threaded barrel for choke options. Thanks for watching.

[@DRAGONRIDER385]

Very interesting. Thanks for the video.

[@RidersRange]

Thanks for watching and for commenting.

[@nckchrstn6726]

How can I lengthened the pull by 1 1/2 inches?

[@RidersRange]

Nick, that's a good question. The Rossi Turkey stock is a little longer and would probably fit the Tuffy action, but probably wouldn't be real cheap.

[@bobmcgregor8301]

Can you get different barrels for it

[@RidersRange]

Bob, I don't see any different barrels for the Tuffy on the Rossi website. However, the Tuffy "Matched Pair" comes with a .410 barrel and a .22LR barrel. The barrels they show in their on-line store are for the "W" models only, which I presume is their Wizard single shot that is out of production.

[@joelaque6378]

Great video thanks

[@RidersRange]

Thank you for watching.

[@denisestarr2314]

I'm going to get one .

[@bighookpgh]

Could a 45 Colt round be shot with this .410? My 3" judge is awesome with Colt rounds

[@RidersRange]

I've seen it done, but haven't tried it myself - yet.

[@gregzeigler3850]

@@RidersRange I do believe the choke of that shotgun(Modified) is .404, thus that 45 round is considerably larger than the choke. Rossi shotguns are made on 410 frames, unlike say the thicker barreled H&R's which are just 12 gauges bored out for 410's. I wouldn't recommend firing it out of that Rossi......

[@bowfin9553]

Thinking about getting this now!

[@bowfin9553]

Got it today could only find #9 bird shot though I looked at 4 different stores for ammo!

[@RidersRange]

Bowfin, it's certainly an interesting (and enjoyable) little gun. But as you have found out, .410 ammo is scarce right now.

[@frankbutta9344]

39,000 views on the first video is impressive! Thanks for Sharing! 👍👍👍👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[@RidersRange]

Frank, I sure wish I knew what would generate traffic. In the two months since I put that video up, it has become my all-time most watched review.

[@Chrisinpa]

I have the regular length Rossi .410. I have a Rear sight on mine. I reload .410 and use .40 cal. musket balls. I love the gun.

[@RidersRange]

Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@pepperoni-prepper]

in most situations, the perfect survival rifle is a .22lr with the accuracy and dependability of a cz452, and compact as an AR-7. for self reliance, a .22 hornet, reloading bench, and some knowledge. for defense, a double barrel 12 gauge will stop anyone in their tracks, and is legal in most countries. interestingly, i find on our property, i grab the double barrel shotgun 9 times out of 10, when it comes to protecting the livestock. i grab the 308 when it comes to feral control (feral pigs mostly, but we do get water buffalo). I grab the .22lr when it comes to training / small game. and i grab the .177 air rifle, when it comes to a challenge. I have a .223, but in practical terms, it is a glorified .22 hornet, just less efficient. i will probably use it as a pack rifle, as the 308 is a bit heavy. I have been tempted to get a .410 as a lighter shotgun for snakes (i have relocated 37 snakes over 3m long, and unfortunately had to dispatch 3 to save livestock), but when i did the math, the 12 gauge reloads are almost as efficient, and a hell of a lot more bang for the money....also the .410 isn't legal for goose hunting here, so it would be a one trick pony.

[@Flexatron86]

I purchase the same one a month ago. It was a good deal for it.

[@jeeplife2035]

Great little gun. Just got one the other day. Correct me if I’m wrong but you can’t shoot 45LC out of this gun.

[@RidersRange]

You are correct. While it MAY handle the .45LC, it could be dangerous and is not at all recommended.

I haven't measured it, but as near as I can tell it is a cylinder bore, not a modified. But I could be wrong.
