Have a MGM 30/40 Krag that plain shoots. Of course I couldn't leave well enough alone and purchased a 375 JDJ that I've been hunting the past several years. Picked up 44 mag that had been re-chambered to 444 thats a little tough on me. Also so have a 21" 45 colt barrel that I've yet to shoot. Both the Krag and the JDJ shoot well and are easy to carry in the Contender.
