I built this off a Contender Frame. This has been one of my favorite and most accurate guns ever!! Has been devistating on north central Colorado grond squirrels. I went with the 19" SS bull barrel as it was recommended by bullberry. Off the bat it looks a bit stubby for the gun, but the looks really grew on me over time. See following link from Bullberry on the subject:

I also purchased the common grade wood stock and forearm from Bullberry and was amazed with the quality.

The lighting is not the best in my gun/reloading cave, but here are a few pics:
