Has this round ever been offered in a lever action ? Seems like a good hog round to 100yards.

Cut
I've wanted a Winchester 92 in the 357 max, for a lot of years.
Might be able to convert one of the 92's made in 454 or 44 mag.

How about a Winchester 94 in 357mag alteration. Action is way too short for the M92 Winchester action.

I would prefer it in a light semi auto, a modern Model 8. I like it in my T/C, I have a Bellmbarrel in that chambering.

Winchester (and Marlin) did that and it went over like a fart in a perfume factory. It was called a 94 Big Bore and was chambered in 356 Win.

I like and have shot the round in the RSM Blackhawk for years but always thought one of the old Ruger Carbines so chambered (realize length won't work) would be the bees knees.

I had Mike Bellm rebarrel a CVA Apex rifle barrel for me to 357 Max. It's a great round and I have often wondered if a current lever gun could be reworked into it. I think it would be a great trail rifle.

An H&R Topper rechamber would be sweet.

I've been thinking of sending in my .410" H&R for a re-barrel to .357 magnum, then renting a reamer to take it to .357 Max. I think it would be a great rifle for plinking with cast bullets and for use as a simple to operate deer rifle for young people or anyone with little experience with guns.
