I've got a 10" rimfire, a 10" 30-30 and 14" that I had SSK re-chamber to a 309JDJ. That caliber is awesome to shoot. It will run 150 SST's to almost 2500fps. Recoil is stout though. My next barrel will probably be a 222 or 223 to shoot some varmints. I've always wanted a 35 rem but with the 309 probably wouldn't gain too much. I've often thought about the 375JDJ as well but really don't know what I would hunt with it that I couldn't kill with the 309. Either way, the Contender is a really fun gun to shoot and hunt with. Keeps me entertained at least!
