    Default My "new" but old to me T/C Contender!

    Getting back into my T/C Contender after many, many years.

    After a divorce many years ago, all I was left with was a .22 Hornet barrel. Well, I almost sold the barrel and reloading dies a few times, but I held onto it. A few weeks ago I found a local guy selling the frame. I found another local guy, actually on this forum looking to sell a silver Bushnell scope just like I used to have on the T/C. I'm currently waiting for the scope mount base to arrive. The forend from Bullberry just arrived today.

    Cool. I've only ever shot two of those. Both much larger calibers.
    Didn't realize they came in that caliber.
    I called to check my ZIP CODE!....DY-NO-MITE!!!

    I have the same Super 14 in .223 It's a lot of fun and a great groundhog gun. I also have one of the older .222 octogon barrels and a .35 Remington 12" barrel.

    Congrats on your find!
