I'm new to this forum and to the wonderful world of T/C handguns but i've got it bad. Mid December I got an Encore in 7mm/08 after much work at the loading bench finally got a load to group consistently. So I had to aquire a contender and found one in .22 remington jet. Does anyone have any experience with this cartridge? My dies and brass arrived today and i'm ready to see what she can do. Any loads or advice appreciated.     Thanks in advance, Les
