Found a box of Nosler 250 grain JHPs at the local gun shop and put some loads together to try in the Contender.

I noticed from the box that it says 45 Long Colt but what is you load? In my experience with the Contender with the 45/410 combo barrels NO 45 Colt loads are very accurate. The bullet has to jump too far. I have a 10" barrel that has the adjustable back sight with a front ramp sight. DON'T FOR GET TO REMOVE YOUR CHOKE TUBE TO SHOOT BULLETS.

A lot of this is the shooter but it is what it is.
