Getting back into T/C Contenders and out together once chambered in 7-30 Waters. Man, I am impressed with its accuracy. 5-shots from 100yds off of a rest. Nosler 120gr BT and 34.0gr of Varget.

Nosler 120gr BT and 34.0gr of Varget. I'm shooting 36 grains with similar results. Love the Waters.
Rod, too.
Short cuts often lead to long recoveries.

I was never a TC fan. Always thought they were neat but until I really started shooting them, I had no idea how accurate they could be. It would take a REALLY good rifle to outshoot my 309 from SSK. It makes me look like a much better shooter than I am most days
I think the waters is probably one of the best factory barrels ever made for the contender. Great caliber in this platform! Nice shooting buddy.

I never thought much of them either till I picked this one up a while back,it is extreamly accurate. I only have the one barrel,it is a 14" in 30-30

I was really surprised at the accuracy. I have a T/C Contender in .223 and know how extremely accurate that particular handgun can be. I never shot a 7-30 Waters prior to this year, but wow!
