Default Contender reloads

Just ordered a 23" Contender barrel in 6.8 spc andwanted to know if anyone has any pet reloadsfor this new cartridge yet?[/align]Also wondering,specifically for the Contender barrel,if anyone has experimented with the seating depth ofthe bullets? [/align]My thought being thatwithheavier bullets you might be able to seat the bullet out farther for a longer AOL andfree up more case capacity. Didn't know if there was any room to play with there before hitting the lands. [/align]Thanks all![/align]

well, you'd play with seating depth in he Contender just like you would in any other firearm... I don't think they have a ton of freebore, but you don't have a magazine to limit your overall length...
