Title: Rossi Circuit Judge
Post by: ghosthunter on July 31, 2011, 07:05:19 PM: Ok I have been thinking about this gun for over a year. I own a Judge and I think it would be great to have a rifle that shoots the same ammo. I looked back through the threads but did not see one on this topic. Sorry If I missed it.
Today I was in walmart with the wife and as always happen by the gun racks. There it was ,begging me to ask to pick it up, calling to me, I had to slap myself. I cannot get it out of my mind. I have read everything on the web about it. I have been staying away from Skagit Arms & Wholesale Outfitters because it will know I am there and call to me. Am I sick?
Anyone here have one? Do you like it.
So what do you folks think? Talk me out of it.
I know I am going to have to have it.

It would be a good rabbit blaster though and with the 45LC you could have a fun little short range deer round with some buffalo bore ammo.

So is it a rifle or a shotgun? If it is a rifle than the 3 shell requirement would not apply right?
You can shoot grouse with anything.

You should buy one so I can shoot it and decide if I like it enough to buy one too :)

I comes with a two shot plug. But does it fall in the 3 shot requirement for upland? Is it a rifle or a shotgun?
If it is a rifle you can use as many shell as you want? Grouse I guess it dosen't matter?
