The Rossi is cheap, there’s loads of info around about tuning and modifying it and it comes in a choice of barrel lengths and finishes. Widely available too.
It’s not for everyone, but the club Rossi I’ve shot a fair few times has run flawlessly and accurately.

I run 3 Ubertis - a Henry in .44/40: an 1866 carbine in .38/40 and an 1873 short rifle in .32/20. Great bits of kit. I also have a Chiappa '92 short rifle in .44/40 - slick as a whistle out of the box.

Thank you for taking the time to respond. I think the Rossi is the only type I have not had a chance to try..Kungfugerbil wrote:Argh! Now I’ve wasted my time reading your commentHrun wrote: Why? This is not a helpful post and annoys me as I wasted my time clicking on the thread to read it..![]()

I have 2 Marlins in .44 and .357 and have to say they are fantastic, as long as you look after them they will give you a lifetime of service...just take a look down the line at one of the Gallery Rifle shoots 

Re: Good under lever recommendation please
Rossi are a good starter, but the Henry’s are the best in my opinion.

Re: Good under lever recommendation please
I have a Marlin .38/.357 bought new just over five years ago and I cannot fault it, I have a few upgrade from here http://www.rimfiremagic.co.uk/marlin_rifles.html such as William's Aperture sights, one piece stainless steel firing pin and a reduced power hammer spring; I would like to add a big loop leaver in the future.

Re: Good under lever recommendation please
I've just taken the plunge and ordered my first lever action a Rossi m92 in .44
Not everyone's cup of tea, but it just might be mine...

Re: Good under lever recommendation please
best thing you can do before you shoot it is sit with it for a night, and just constantly rack it open and closed. this should lighten the action a bit and bed everything in, making it all a bit smoother

We have a club Rossi in stainless. In the last three years it’s done close to 25000 rounds and not one breakage. It really is smother than any 92 action I’ve come across.
In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?
