Winchester "Lightning" Pump Copy Question??
I am considering a lil 20" Beretta 7000 Stampede in 45LC and was wondering if any of you know if this is considered a strong action as I want to shoot the heavier and hotter loads with it(but dont want to blow it up!)...I know the Lever 92s,No Problem...(dont have a pump rifle section,so I thought this may be closest) Thanks!

the rifle in question is actually a very close copy of the Colt Lightning Magazine Rifle. I have the Taurus in 45LC. I would not want to load it much over SAA pressure levels. It is a cowboy action shooting/fun rifle, not a stout "hellbent for election..." high pressure design.
