445 SuperMag

[Lee Martin]

Dug out a Contender I almost forgot I had. It's a 12" barrel we built in 445 SuperMag:





Haven't shot it in years, but got it to the range over the weekend. The Rynite grips hammer the wrist pretty hard, but it shot great. Too bad this round wasn't more widely accepted. With the move to longer frames (S&W's X, BFR, etc), it seems like a natural to re-release since it handles 44 Magnum too.

Years ago I bought a 14" barrel in that caliber with the now defunct Redfield 2-6 x variable handgun scope. I sold it at a gun show and in a strange way I sort of regret it.

You should almost forget that in my safe.
