1873 and a SAA both in .44-40
How do you guys like the M92 Rossi in .45 Colt? I have a newer Winchester Saddle Ring .357 and a fine old S&WM-19 as combos. Would really like to go with the .45 colt for fun. Ruger Blackhawk Convertible .45 Colt and .45ACP and a S&W M25 are waiting a rifle to match up with.

Some of my favorite recipes start out with a handful of depleted counterbalance devices.
I have both Rossi 92s and Winchester 94s in both .357 and .45 Colt. I hate to say it, but I prefer the Rossi 92s for pistol rounds. The 92 action was made for the pistol rounds, while the 94 was made for .30-30/.38-55 length rounds, and that allows the 92 to feed smoother and faster. Now, they're equally accurate, but the 94s just don't work as smooth. My Rossi 92s see a lot more hunting use than the pistol caliber 94s.
I passed my last psych eval, how bout you?
father-in-law had a Python, Uberti SAA and Marlin in .357 His goal was one load for everything. Turned out that each only did well with a different load. So, he sold off the Marlin and gave me the Python
That Python really likes full bore loads best (125gn gas checked or jacketed). When I do my part it will group less than an inch at 25yds. If I run 'slow' loads in it the groups double in size (and sometimes triple).
The Marlin liked heavy bullets pushed slowly (180gn) and the Uberti liked medium weight (158gn) slow bullets.
I have 2 combos. A Marlin model 60 and a Heritage Rough Rider in 22lr and a new model BlackHawk/ Rossi 92 in .357 mag.
I had an older Browning M92 in .44 mag that I COULD KICK MYSELF FOR EVER SELLING. On the hunt for a Rossi M92 in .45 Colt.
i want a Henry and a revolver in .357 or .44, or i just may buy a BFR .30-30 to match my 336
I've had several 45-70 levers but never could warm up to the 45-70 revolver
Never had a 44 mag revolver, rifle or carbine. But at one time was thinking about getting one of those 444 revolvers
I've read the OP question and poll a couple of times and it still makes little sense. I can only guess it has something to do with having and shooting a rifle/carbine along with a revolver, both in the same caliber ???
If that's the case, then I've had several combinations that seem practical and go well together.
22rf ---- Win 9422 lever with S&W K22 revolver
32-20 -- Win 92 and 73 levers with Colt SAA revolver
357/38 - Marlin 94 lever with various S&W revolvers
38-40 -- Win 92 and 73 levers with Colt SAA revolver
It's nice to have the same bullets for both.

You didn't list my choice;
1894 Marlin Cowboy Carbine Limited and Ruger Blackhawk in .41 Magnum, have 5.5"SS Bisley or 6.5" Blue regular grip to choose from. When the Marlin gets to go the Super Blackhawk Hunters have to stay home.

why no 41 mag, 32-20, and 32 mag options.
G'day from Downunder .
G'day All , my favourite combo is my Freedom Arms mod 83 in .41 magnum & my Marlin 1894 carbine in .41 magnum .
Regards Paul .
Unfortunately, I have decided I need a revolver and lever action combination chambered for the 45 ACP. The revolver is the easy part of the equation, the lever action, not so much.
The closest I could come would be a revolver and lever rifle chambered for the 45 Cowboy Special.
Knowledge I take to my grave is wasted.
I prefer to use cartridges born before I was.

But I am as happy with calibers 41 mag and 32 WCF which are far more used be me in the river bottoms and field edges I tend to lurk around when up north there.

LOL I can pick them up at the lgs here anytime for that price. I am cheap and watching for a used one. They come up from time to time, just not when I had the extra bucks yet. lol
Um, I choose a 250-3000 M-99 and a Ruger Redhawk 44 mag.

I'll have a better answer after I get my hands on a 41 Mag Marlin.
