My son had one that he used for Cowboy Action in .38/.357. It was pretty stiff when new, but has loosened up as he put more rounds downrange.
If you decide to have it slicked up, Steve Young of Steve's Guns is the guru of the Winchester 1892 clones. http://www.stevesgunz.com/
I can't vouch for his work, but he seems to be the person who does the most with them and also deals with "problem guns".

I might have to hit him up. Someone at Rossi decided to add a "safety" in the most inconvenient place on the rifle. At least with a tang safety it's within reach of my thumb with my hand in the lever, but on top of the receiver?
This guy is the "expert" on them

He rocks on Rossi's I have managed to do it all from his DVD but if you are not confident, he can do it at pretty reasonable rates considering the time involved (stoning this stuff is slow).
As for the plastic mag tube vs steel, I must admit I have been agnostic, I have lots of guns with plastic mag tube followers and rarely have a problem. Is it a dollar wasted now, necessary? Not so sure.
I dunno, mine is fine BUT I haven't shot it that much. I'd lay money the weight, friction and recoil is much more from a 44 Mag than a 357 or .22 on that plastic so it would have to be apple to apple. I'll let you know if it ever goes **** up.
