We like levers.  Congrats on that one.

How rough is the action? I had an old pre safety 44-40 that was rough out of the box but it slicked up nice.

It needs some uuse, but it. Is smooth..  I had no problems loading 38. Or. 357. It seems to shoot cast better than jacketed . 

At this time I have all my. Shooting at needs met with  lever.  Gun.
     One Savage 99 in .308, two Marlin 336 30-30. And now this 92..
except for a good Dragoon..

That's great Rick!! Did you buy an SRC by any chance? Blued version or stainless? I bought a used SRC large loop about 5 months ago blued and chambered in .357/.38spl. they do shoot well and seem to chamber both .357 and .38 with ease. I think mine is roughly 10 years old. Glad to hear the news of your newly acquired rifle.
