[QUOTE="yorke-1, post: 1680035, member: 11960"] I have to call your bluff on this. Hitting 3400 fps with a 125gr bullet in a 15” Contender chambered for 309 JDJ isn’t happening. You’d be pushing pretty hard to hit that velocity with a 125gr bullet in a 24” 30-06 rifle. I shot the 125 NBT in a 14” 300 WSM Striker and was pushing pretty hard to hit 3250 fps. That was with a larger case at pressures WAY beyond anything you could try in a Contender (or Encore for that matter). Hitting 2800 fps with a 125gr bullet in 15” 309 JDJ Contender is very optimistic. [/QUOTE]
