I've been looking for a single shot "western style" rifle - i.e. something like a rolling block, etc. that is chambered in 38/357 as a companion piece for my New Vaquero SA.

There are plenty of lever guns - Henry, Rossi, Winchester, etc. but the only thing that I can find that is single shot is the H & R "handy rifle" which is a modern style single shot top break.

Does anyone know of anyone making a rolling block, Sharps, etc. that is chambered in the 38/357 cartridge? Or am I going to be limited to the lever guns?

Thanks.
