It looks like Rossi Model 92's in both .44 Mag and .454 chamberings have a 1:30" twist for all issue barrel lengths.

That does suprise me somewhat, both my 454's have shot everything up to 315 gr as well as I can see the iron sights.  My 44 is peep-sighted and does even better, but have not gone above 240gr with it.  DP
