I know this is an old post but I have some questions/comments on your barrel. First of all I bought a factory .204 Ruger barrel for my Contender at the first of this year....full bull 23". As soon as I recieved it I just knew there was a problem. First the gap between the breech face and the chamber end of the barrel was excessive....like >.005". Next the pivot pin hole in the lug was too large....so much so that you could push the pin out with the gun closed. And of course when I put a new unfired round in the barrel I noticed in went in way to far....chamber cut to deep. Called TC and told them that I had not even fired the thing but wasn't going to until after they checked it out. I sent it last week and haven't heard much back. My question have you gotten a satisfactory reply back on yours and is everything ok now ? How long did it take ? What did they do ?
Mine obviously requires more work to correct than to replace. If I had to do it over I would have just had Bullberry make me a 20 Tactical and been done with it. It makes more sense anyway as the Tac can be made up with .223 brass instead of the much less common .222 Rem mag. brass.
