What leverguns can be used for the shorter cased cartridges

I usually conceal carry my snub 44mag in the front pocket unless Im wearing a jacking then its in my jacket pocket I use a baby browning 25acp as a backup or if im wearing hot summer clothing aka shorts as it fits perfect into a shirt pocket. When Im not carrying my 44 I carry an EAA 10mm or...

Has anyone done a comparison between these and CEB or NF solids?

It doesn't appear to have damascus steel barrels and the make is francaise d'armes et cycles de st.etienne

I am looking at a 2.75" 577 double it has hammers is this capable of using smokeless powder? Sorry if this is a simple question but I have no experience with doubles. Also if this can handle smokeless would it be possible to further ream out the chamber so it could use 3" cases?

I know its a long shot but I would like some African Grand Slam solids formerly made by Speer.

I will take some logic from the 45-70 in africa thread and say sure the 223 will work but there are many better options available.

Very well done

This bullet looks impressive but I wished they made there bigger bullets to full size.
