I don't think they did a 30-30 on a SB1 frame, if they did a 357 Maximum I would say that is the highest pressure at 40,000psi.  If they did not do a factory Maximum it was probably the 357 Mag. Larry

Ahhh, a trick question!!  :P Non SB2 would apply to the old H&R Inc's cast iron frames too I think, they did 30-30 and 357Mag and Max, 44mag on it, 22 Rem Jet too.

It is a trick, but does a non-SB2 frame make it a SB1 Frame?  I am thinking there are at least 3 different types of frames and that the frames that are not SB1 or SB2's are stronger than the SB1's but not as strong as the SB2's?  Larry

Is that the Topper frame you're talking about, Tim?  I've got 3 of them, a Huntsman and two shotguns.

Yes, CW has a Model 158 Topper 357Max, I think it was made on an SB2 one year also.

Does that mean I could take a 357 and fit it myself to my current 410 topper frame?  That would give me hope.
