The Rossi R95 lever-action rifle in .45-70 Government brings authentic mechanical satisfaction to hunters and shooters who appreciate the tactile rhythm of a well-designed lever gun. Whether you're pursuing big game, engaging in cowboy-action shooting, or simply enjoying the mechanics of a classic action type, the R95 delivers the kind of reliable performance and handling character that's made lever actions a staple of American shooting for over a century. With a 22-inch barrel and 6-round capacity, this rifle balances practical accuracy and power in a package that handles naturally in the field or at the range.
Rossi engineered the R95 around proven lever-action principles: smooth operation, intuitive controls, and a design that rewards good shooting technique. The black oxide finish on both barrel and alloy steel frame resists corrosion, while the hardwood stock provides the classic look and feel hunters expect from this platform. The 1:12-inch right-hand twist and 6-groove bore are optimized for .45-70 ballistics, a cartridge that's been trusted for large game and heavy brush country for generations. At just over 7 pounds, the rifle remains handy enough for all-day hunting without sacrificing sight radius or barrel length.
Iron sights come ready to use: the front sight is drift-adjustable for windage, and the rear buckhorn sight offers straightforward elevation adjustment. A thumb safety keeps the hammer secure when you need it. The R95's overall length of 41 inches and compact width make it maneuverable in tight cover or brush. This is a rifle built to work, not to collect attention—it earns its place in your rack through honest performance and the kind of mechanical elegance that never goes out of style.
