Has anyone ever did this and if so where did you get the barrel? what calibers are available? Is the contender frame strong enough to with stand a rifle barrel?

I had a .44 Remington Magnum barrel that was reamed out to accept a .444 Marlin for my Contender and had no problems with it in spite of the punch, recoil, it gave. My neighbor bought it and still uses it.
