In the Contender I would go with the JDJ’s based off the 444 case. In the Encore I would go with the GNR ‘s based of the 405 case. I like the rimmed cased on the single shots. That is what it boils down to with me. I have 4 Reeder barrels and all of them with shoot lights out if you do your part. Reeder also has GREAT customer service. I am not saying SSK doesn’t and I have never heard a customer EVER complain about one of JDJ’s products. Just trying to share my experiences with Reeder.

Black Forest HP, have you been to Reeder’s Forum page?
