I bought a Rossi stainless in 44 mag the first of April, it was rough which I could live with but it had excessive headspace. I had cases separate 1/2 inch from the rim. I sent the rifle back after having it 18 days. Rossi contacted me after 8 weeks and advised they would replace the rifle, when they got a replacement as they were between runs. I picked up the replacement the 2nd week in October. It was smooth, sighted in but after 15 rounds of Remington factory ammo I had one total separation and one with a visible ring at the same place inside the case. I checked the headspace and the action would closed easily with .016 shim and would close with effort on a .020 shim. This rifle was bought as emergency situation rifle I feel so screwed. Will call Rossi tomorrow.
