Overview

Rossi has been manufacturing dependable firearms for over a century, and the R92 series represents a modern take on the Winchester 1892 action. The Rossi R92 357 Magnum Lever-Action Rifle with Octagonal Barrel is chambered for .357 Magnum, delivering sufficient energy for medium-game hunting, target shooting, and home defense. The 20-inch octagonal barrel contributes to improved accuracy through increased barrel stiffness while maintaining a balanced weight of approximately 6.2 pounds. The action cycles smoothly with both .357 Magnum and .38 Special ammunition, giving shooters flexibility in power and cost per round.

The Rossi R92 357 Magnum Lever-Action Rifle with Octagonal Barrel weighs 6.2 pounds unloaded, making it easy to carry in the field.
