I set up a Contender in .30-30 a few months ago. I got a deal on a new TC barrel.
If it doesn't shoot I'll get a MGM. Have it reamed out to .30-40 Krag and shoot loads meant for 1894, i.e. < 40,000psi. Mine done like that is a very accurate, lightweight carbine.

I already have some of the 140's to load up when I get some brass emptied.
