I have two, a T/C in 30/30 with a 14" heavy stainless steel barrel and a Wichita International in 22lr.
What do you have? I will take pics and include them soon.

I have an old Stevens 35 with a fair bore.  It shoots standard velocity ammo better than target stuff.

Remington 1871 Army.   Shoots great and 350 grains of lead speaks with considerable authority.  Consistent 3" offhand groups at 25 yards.

Ballards may be weaker,

I have three single shot pistols. One is an old Savage 101 that looks like a revolver, but is really a .22LRR single shot where the barrel and cylinder are one piece and swing out to one side to load a single cartridge. Bought it cheap decades ago to let my granddaughter learn to shoot a handgun.
I own two Remington Model 1891 .22 Target pistols. One is a HM Pope barrel in .22 Short with lightened hammer and action work, plus threaded for suppressor for indoor matches. The other is by Pope's apprentice Arthur Hubalek and is in .22LR. It's got a highly modified grip frame to make it a larger grip and a full grip frame.

I have three, all Stevens.  A model 35, 10, and 41.
The model 35 is a pretty good shooter. 
The model 10 is somewhat uncommon, but the pistol has a weak spot being the locking latch, a poor design.

Thanks for the picture. Looks similar to the 30-30 Wesson round except 32 cal.

I have two but probably don't historically into this topic. Both are single shots and bolt actions though.

An Anschutz 14' Exemplar in .22 rimfire.

A Remington XP-100, now with its fifth barrel, always with cast bullets. It started as a1964 original in 221 Fireball. After that .30 Kern, .30 PPC, .30 Silhouette, 6.5 TKS and now .22 BR.

Here's my Buchel target pistol in 8.15x24r if I can get the picture to load. Ammo can be made from 38 special ran through a 30 luger die and trimmed to 24 mm long. Rear trigger cocks the internal hammer, front trigger fires it probably a 1oz trigger no creep, hairy and scary
