does anybody shot a rossi 223

[bowkill144]

I was thinking of buying a rossi single shot in 223 for yote hunting I only get out a couple of times a year and the farthest I need to shoot where I hunt would be 200 yards. I can get a new one for $149 and I already have a scope for it and some shooting sticks do you guys think this cheap of a gun will Kill a yote at 200 yards or am I wasting my 150 dollars. I have a 270 rem that shoots good but it seems a bit much for the dogs I also would use the rossi for chucks at the same kind of distance under 250yards. Thanks for any input in advance.

I have one and it shoots great. About the only complaint that I have with it is if you shoot too many shots in a row without letting it cool enough it can be hard to open. The gun shoots very well with a cheap 3X9 scope on it and it is super cheap to shoot too. Dont forget to pick up a hammer spur for it if you do put a scope on it. I got mine in the matched pair with a 12 gauge barrel for $95 tax included. It was a closeout deal since the store was discontuing firearm sales.

i have a rossi .223 with the heavy barrel. i put a 3x9x40 with mil dots and a bipod on it. i shoot 55 gr balistic silver tips and i couldn't be happier. it does get a little sticky when it heats up though.
