When I had my Rossi 462, I put about 700 rounds through it, about 600 of which were Fiocchi 142 gr Truncated Cone .357 Magnum ammo. I bought it new and owned it for about 9 months. The FFL I sold it to swore up and down that the lockup was loose, but at that time I was new to revolvers and didn't know if this was true or not. With my SP101, it was a good gun, but there were always fliers due to the tang grip frame. Always a bit of wobble. With my S&W snubbies I always shot a bit low, but the Taurus 605...well that gun is my most accurate .357/.38 I have shot. I am always surprised at how the point of impact seems to be the same no matter the ammo and have done my fair share of 5 yard one hole groups. I don't like how the Taurus extractor screw gets loose a lot, but as long as I periodically finger tighten it, it's about the best snubby I have owned other that the LCR.
@LionquestFitness3 жыл бұрын
Sam, I had to laugh about your endorsement of the 605. Yesterday was an anomaly. Usually the 605 or the 856 or the 85 are the best shooters for me. By the way, I used blue loctite on the cylinder screw of the 856 that kept backing out. But, I've seen this over and over again. In the accuracy department I can take a Taurus revolver and a comparable S&W and sometimes I'll shoot one better and on the next try will shoot the other better.

I've had my cylinder jam up on a Taurus 605 and stop turning a few times. It was caused by the primers from the fired rounds I was using backing out of the brass under pressure and wedging the cylinder after a few shots. If this happens to you again, check your fired brass to see if the primers are still flush and if they have scrape marks from dragging and then jamming.

Most experts, and I don't count myself as one, tend to advise carrying .38 Plus P in a revolver for daily carry as opposed to .357. Three-fifty-seven is a man stopping round. But, you also have audible disorientation from the sound, recoil and flash, and a slightly slower time in getting shots on target. So, I think you are making a good decision with the SP101.

That question pops up from time to time. Charter is a small American company and you want to root for the underdog. Taurus is a very large international corporation much bigger than S&W and Ruger, so a product comparison to Charter is really unfair.

Interesting info on the trigger of the Rossi. I collect Smith & Wesson revolvers from the 1970s and they all have very smooth triggers. My Taurus revolvers also have great triggers (85, 65) and my 2 older Taurus's are more accurate than any of my Smiths. I have a Colt Detective Special from 1971 and that trigger does stack, so more effort is needed to make it break. Regardless, the best solution is to pick the one that you shoot best and make it your carry gun.

Well thought out philosophy of use and ownership about the Rossi. Its an experts' collectable. One of many not a 1 and only in your battery so its a justified luxury investment. Hope it grows in value. As far as the spectre of firing pins being prone to breakage I also have read the same on the forums, sometimes cited by gunsmiths who should know, and they traced the fault to improper heat treatment of that part. Could a replacement be made by an outfit like Power Custom if needed ? Also what mainspring did Rossi use, a S&W K frame type flat leaf or a conventional coil spring ?

Good questions. I read on the Taurus.net form about a guy who re-worked a Model 36 firing pin for his. The Rossi uses a coiled spring. I've been considering selling it to an FFL I know, but I'd have to be up front about the recall and the other possible issues.

The problems that I've heard with the re-loads is that the recoil tended to separate the bullet from the case a bit and make them work out a bit to far for the revolver cylinder. I heard that's not much of a problem for the semi auto's. I tend to buy only brass case ammo. I also always buy new ammo from a good seller on ammo seek. Some places even offer free shipping on orders $125.00 Others sites offer free shipping on orders of $250.00 or more. If I need ammo for different guns, I just a few boxes from the same site if they have a decent deal. I don't know if all Taurus's are like mine but if I slowly pull the trigger, the hammer comes back and clicks twice before firing. I can pull the trigger and hold it on the second click, then it will fire just like a single action with very little effort squeezing the trigger. I know Taurus made those Rossi's, But is there a Rossi that's better than a Taurus? also did the Rossi have a transfer bar? also was wondering if the springs worked the same as the Taurus? thanks for the video. I rather enjoyed this one. Peace..
@LionquestFitness2 жыл бұрын
Boy, you can tell that video was during the height of COVID because I wasn't getting regular haircuts! That was also when I was first trying various loads from Georgia Arms, which has pretty much become my go to. Interesting comment on the two clicks for the Taurus revolvers. It is slight, but yes there are two clicks. I did find one difference between the 605 I bought about six years ago and the old 85 between the newer 856's. The triggers on the older five shot guns seem to be more assertive and crisp as compared to the two 856's I have. Probably because of the larger cylinder. I'm pretty sure the Rossi's had a type of safety block, because it wasn't sliding into position like it was supposed to and that was the source of the dropped discharges. But it was different from the transfer bar safeties on the current Taurus and Smith revolvers with the hammers without a pin mounted on them. The Rossi's did have a firing pin mounted on the hammer. There was a lot I liked about that Rossi in the video. But, the more research I did, the more I found reports of reliability issues, so I went ahead and sold it to an FFL, letting him know it was on a recall list.

He said he'd shot some practice round's and did 50 dry firing. Everyone said the same thing, with Taurus you have to use snap caps ( vroom ) or empty brass. I use both with my revolver's even if the mfg company says you don't have to. If you use them all the time, you won't forget when you have to. Have a blessed night Greg and it's great to be back amongst the living.

It's a shame all 3 Taurus revolvers I had no luck with them because they have really good triggers. My first 85 the cylinder would lock up, my 2nd 85UL the key lock activated itself and I couldn't undo it. My 3rd and last 856 if I staged the trigger I would get misfires. It seems the only Taurus I have any luck with is my TCP738 in 380. It's been 100% reliable with all the different ammo I was able to get and I can hit a steel silhouette with it constantly at 25 yards. I hope to find a pre lock S&W 642.

El Guapo, would you say there was a "plethora" of revolvers ? Si, pero no Colts. BTW Greg, thanks for the Rossi history & wouldn't complain about your shooting at all.

I forgot to mention how great those grips are on the Rossi. Very conducive for shooting .357.

Rossi website has Every Serial Number under recall Because I bought my DA SP101 used, I believe it was given a trigger job, because it is sure n smooth. Everything I'd expect from a revolver. Watch for the knowledge, Stay for the music
