SRH loads in a Contender
« on: August 01, 2011, 06:16:39 AM »
I have some fairly hot ,44 mag loads I shoot in my SRH, Would those same loads be o.k, in a 10 inch and 14 in  Contender?  Should I crimp loads for the contender?  My cartridges have a heavy crimp.  Thanks

Yes they'll be fine.  The 44 Mag really shines in the Contender, it's a completely different animal!
