Need a Contender expert

[PapaG]

Been a fan for years, have had maybe a dozen, now down to four. My main question is about the .22 caliber rim fire rifles and pistols. I've been getting phenomenal accuracy from both a bull barrel 10", and a carbine. Both equal or better the groups from my Anschutz, my 10-22T, and my CZ 455.
We're all the 22 lr barrels set up with match chambers and was there anything special about the barrels?

might i ask at what range you were getting these groups at?

what ammo you were shooting?

and if we could get some pictures of the targets, or at least grouping size?

Shooting at 50 meters, TC rifle was using cci minimag hp, others a variety of match grade eley, wolf, s&b, federal premium, and fed auto match. Best five shot from contender rifle, not a bull barrel, was .310", got one like it from the cz using a 35 year old batch of eley club. All done on a really calm day, temp I the 70s, no one at the club to bother me. TC had a TC 4X scope, cz and 10-22 both had6-24X varmint/ target scopes, setat about 18X.

T/C made both standard and match chambered 22RF barrels. If it is a match chamber it will say it on the barrel right after the 22RF.
