Tula through a Rossi lever?

[svt3183 14]

Anyone have experience running Tula 357 through a Rossi lever gun? I am a bit nervous about buying a case of it if it will be a problem, especially since I read a lot of revolvers have issues with the cases getting stuck. Thanks

I wouldn't sweat it but I've read that Tula 357 is not much hotter than a regular 38.

My wife bought me a Rossi lever rifle in .357 30 years ago. It's been a safe queen and I never got the chance took the time to fire it. What do you think of that rifle since you have used yours?

Well that would suck then. 38 through the lever is like a 22, it's nice to have a little more feel with real 357.

I admittedly shot it only once but loved it - so much fun and blew through like 300+ rounds no sweat. It's more fun to plink then target shoot. As I mentioned, 38 in it is super soft. 357 is more fun IMO but more $ too. I'm really looking forward to shooting it again more so then my AR's and AK's. I want to wear it in more then work on the action a bit.

That's my problem. I always take my AR's and AK and a Mosin but leave that that one in the back of the safe. It looks like it would be fun to shoot!

 

I will take it out on my next range trip and break it's cherry. Based on your advice, I will leave the .38 ammo home.

I very recently just sighted in my new Henry 357 at 50 yds, my back yard bore sight was spot on thankyou! Couldnt see too well with the irons. Anyway I was punching the center dot but my mistake was sighting in with 38s. Went to 357 and I guess the trajectory was so different they werent even on paper. Was a bit disappointed but by then my old eyes were calling the quits after3,4 hrs of shooting other guns.That lever gun is fun, especiallly after I sewed on some padded leather lol, just need to figure out how all the dif ammo shoots.

ETA: and to the OP's question, I have no experience running the tula but i would think that the lever action and ejector on one spent case has a lot more persuasion to eject than a wimpy little push rod/star on a revo pushing out multiple spent cases. jusy my opinion.
