Chiappa little badger caliber options

.357 mag, you need an H&R or NEF. The "Little Badger" wouldn't be very "Little" after re-engineering it for .357 mag....? Even .17 WSM, as in the comment above, would be a stretch (17WSM@33000 psi vs 17HMR@26000 psi).

How about a "little T-rex" in .50 BMG?

for the bigger squirrels, that hide behind hardened cover? I like it.

The Little badger IS available in Canada in .17hmr. I have one.

Great gun. But the action a rim fire action only. If youve never held one you wouldn't know. But pick one up and you'll see there is no WAY this gun can handle a rifle or magnum pistol cartridge. It would need to be redesigned to be bigger.
