Not sure what caliber it will handle, but if the action is smaller than the Model J I'm interested in it depending on price. Put me in line to purchase?

I'll try to do some research.

The Model S takes a 1"x14tpi barrel thread and should be able to handle any cartridge that a Winchester High Wall or Sharps Borchardt can.
