    SOMEBODY (ahem, me) did not shoot his 10" Contender in 30 Herrett, EVEN THO HE HAS a bunch of 130gr Speer HP and lbs of Reloder 7, NOT TO MENTION a pile of 30 Herrett brass made from Starline 30-30 cases.

    i'll take a TC Encore in 23" MGM barrel in 444 Marlin, Winchester m94 in 35/30-30, Husqvarna m46 in 9.3x57 and i'll take my son's rifle a '16 Spanish Mauser with Numrich sporter barrel in 6.5x55.

    DUMMKOPF!!!!

    I'll be taking my Encore with 12" Magna-ported .44 mag barrel on it. I took a hog in September with it, but carrying it again after whitetails next Saturday

    I'm carrying a 14 inch 44 mag for short range work up to 100 yards and a 14 inch 7-30 Waters for longer yardage shots both on original Contender frames. And yes if I'm in open woods I do carry both the 44 in an Uncle Mike's shoulder hostler and the 7-30 in my back pack.

    If I carry the contender this year it will be with the 357 magnum barrel. It shoots great out to (and past)100 yards.
