I am considering the purchase of the T/C G2 Contender. The intended purpose is as a deer/hog tool out to pistol ranges(0-100 yds).
As all of them could be used, I am wanting your opinions on which one and why you would pick it.
Let me say that; I reload and have considered hot loading the 30-30 with polymer tipped 165gr bullets. The .44 could be shot w/ .44 special or .44 mag " squib" loads.
The 7.62x39 bbl. can be had in the standard .310/.311 bore or .308 bore. So if your choice is this caliber, then which bore? Again if I handload the .308 is not a problem, but if you want to shoot inexpensive surplus ammo out of the .308 bore you could develop pressure problems or at the very least have lousy accruacy(and quicly polish the lands and grooves). The .308 gives you lots of options as far as bullet selection, which again I could do in the 30-30, however most .308 bullets are designed for higher velocities that the 30-30 or the 7.62x39 can produce safely.
Do you understand my quandary?
Them if you throw the .300 Whisper into the mix...now you really have to make some decisions!!!
Thanks to everyone for their opinions!
