hangunnr Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 My next barrel will likely be a .357 Remington Max. Why, because I don't have one yet..... I would also like to have a stainless .45 cal muzzleloader barrel fitted to my Contender frame. hangunnr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robk Posted September 2, 2005 Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Re: if u were to get a t/c contender???? contender hand gun for deer i would say get the 243 it is a great caliber and will do the trick it is a flat shooting round and will knock down any deer in the usa also if you feel the need for a bigger bore i like the 308 winchester. best roudn the 30 cal guys ever came up with rob k also not as harsh on the recoil as a 30-06 or a 270 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hangunnr Posted September 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2005 Re: if u were to get a t/c contender???? The Contender isn't chambered for calibers such as the .243 or .308 Win. You'd have to move on up to the Encore if you wanna shoot those.

Yup...I know about that one...Unfortunately it is the only choice out there...Besides, the G2 Contender is way down the road for me...I've got other fish to fry first.
