I didn't think the H&R was the exact same gun showed in the original post. There are too many differences in the shape of the frame and grips. I showed this one just to be a representative sample of a H&R chambered the 44 Webley centerfire cartridge from the early 1900's. This one is surprisingly comfortable in the hand even with the small grip, but I get the impression that it might be kind of snappy if you shot it.

Very likely a 44 rimfire.
My guess as well. Cheers NC

It is not often that one finds an authentic Appalachian Avenger in that condition. Except for the trigger, it looks good to go. In the later variants the trigger was beefed up to handle the ferocious squeezes of the adult male hillbilly.

It is an Iver Johnson extra large frame American Bulldog. What a neat find!
