Old Toppers may or may not, I've got a 158 that won't come close.

I have two model 158 (30-30 and 22 Rem Jet) and a model 155 45-70 that will not fit any of my SB2s. But who knows, there maybe some that will. Manufacturing standards for the older H&Rs seems to be all over the place.

My Topper 30-30 barrel fits great on my NEF sb1 frame and I use it that way. I think the frame is stronger than the one it came with. Are you going to try to put that barrel you purchased from Canon on an NEF frame?

The 88 models usually fit well. Haven't had any experience with the 158 models.

I have several different frames, old and new, and yes I was thinking out loud about the 30-30 from canon. I should have it in a day or two.
