The H&R model 155 Shikari was made in the early 70s to early '80s before H&R went out of business, they were available in 45-70 and 44mag, and possibly in 12ga, they used the same ductile iron(cast iron) frame as other H&Rs of the time, but were case colored. They did have nice cut rifled bores, so they shoot cast bullets very well, but are limited to trapdoor loads due to frame strength. There's a nice pic in the link below.
