What is the lightest contour .30 cal barrel made? The .30-30?

Hoping the Handi-loonies will all share their collective knowledge.



What is the lightest contour,  lightest in weight .30 caliber barrel offered in a Handi-Rifle?

Is it the .30-30?  Or is a .30-30 barrel the same as a .30/06?

Yeah, I'm considering a project.   :)   Thanks!

The old H&R M158 and similar pre-1987 rifle barrels had contours similar to the current Superlights if you can find one, modern 30-30 barrels have the same heavy contour as the 30-06 and other 22" standard contour barrels.  :-\
