Have anybody any experience with this caliber in Contender (.308 barrel)? Or .32 S&W Long...
Accuracy with lightweight .308 bullets?

Jari; I shoot the 110gr Speer and 110V-max with Accurate Powder #7-7.3gr, This data is out of Sierras manual and lists 7.4gr as max at 1150fps from a 10" contender barrel. This data is for the Contender only, do not use in a revolver. I get thumb nail size groups at 25 yards with this load. I have loaded some Sabot loads with 55gr 224 bullets but have not shot any yet to see how they group or how fast they are shooting.

I'm interested in shooting some really heavy .30 cal bullets out of this case in a Contender as in a ".32 H&R Mag Whisper." Anyone tried 150 grain bullets and up?

Rezdog,

I shoot 165gr cast RCBS bullets in 200metre BB silhouette standing in my T/C 10" .
Load is 9.2 gr of ADI 2205 (which is I think the equivalent of H4227......BUT CHECK THIS LOAD YOURSELF BEFORE TAKING MY WORD AS GOSPEL).
It is a joy to shoot, and I have only had one ram stand so far.
Peter.

Ihmsakiwi, Now we're talking. I'll verify the loads and give it a try. Many thanks. Anyone else have recommendations???
