Thread: Rossi lever action

Im still looking around for a fun gun. I have my boring and sensible gun.

What I'm thinking about doing is having a Rossi lever action 20" and having the mag shortened so a Dan Hardy or something other can be fitted however if I use a Muzzle forward can this might allow me to still use the iron sights.
Will the barrel be able to support the weight with the mag reduced in length?

The goal is a 80m red, sika & fallow deer gun running subs as heavy as possible ie 300gn

Your Thoughts?
