    I have a contender carbine in 22 magnum and 223 with 16" barrels for both. Fun and light for packing around. Had 223 barrel threaded so I can run my can on it. Now with subsonic handloads its really fun and quiet.

    I had a Steven's crack shot years ago.
    Atleast I believe it was?...pretty sure it was a crackshot, had an 8 sided barrel, single shot exposed hammer with a lever action.
    That was one of my first rifle's.
    It was ruined in an accident, I keep looking for the same style at the LGS...just havn't found the right one yet to replace it.

    For years I blew up groundhogs with a Ruger #1B in .243win :)
    Smoked a lot of varmints 'round the house with an Anschutz 1403.
    Currently have a Contender carbine in .35 Rem.

    Would like to convert it to .22 mag and get another #1 rebarreled for .35 Rem.

    I don't own one, but this is the coolest single shot EVER.

    If we are talking handguns I have 2 remington xp-100's. One in 35 remington that sets in a thumbhole stock and the other is a stock 223. The 35 remington is an absolute tack driver with 180gr hornady ssp bullets and a very stout load of h322.

    My current coolest single shot set up is my Contender with a stainless Super 16 barrel in 223 Remington and a Choate folding stock. It's only 20" when folded. It is currently way over scoped with a 6-24x44 BSA. My 6.25" 22 K-Hornet from Bullberry should be here in 8 weeks.

    I have a new Shiloh Sharps carbine in 45-70; ordered last June and received it in late November. The stand carbine has a 22" barrel, but I ordered this one with 26". Plan on using it fro cowboy long range side-matches and maybe a Plainsman match or two. -- Grizhicks
