I am curious.

Referencing the LaBounty Barrel:

The only google info I found on “LaBounty barrel” indicated that Mr. LaBounty had a shop that could rebore barrels to a slightly larger caliber by following the original rifling.

Rebored barrels are said to be as a good or better than new barrels—due to the stress relief occurring with the use of the barrel as it heats and cools.

Is it a rebore?
Did it start out as a 30-30?
 
If I remember my history correctly, the Number 3 was never offered in 30-30.
Looked up the same and came to the conclusion it is a rebore to it's current
caliber. A good looking gun, if I didn't already have a few single shooters in that caliber
would be chasing it. Hope this helps.
