Will the T3 1-11 twist rate stabilize the longer 180 grain copper bullets? ie; Federal Trophy Copper. I cannot find it's length to use in the stability calculator.

Yes.

.308 or .260?

You are not including the chamber based on your tape.  Your picture is dark on my computer and it's hard to see exactly where you are measuring from.

What's it say on the box?

[37L1]

If you factor in differing ambient conditions such as temperature, barometer, altitude, etc. and then add type of brass and primer used, not to mention different chronys and rifle chambers, one could easily find a difference of 120fps, if everything else about the loads and rifles were identical, which they probably are not.

Not going to make much difference in performance unless you are planning to shoot beyond 600 meters/yards.

[37L1]

Definitely remove the stock so you can see how much adjustment you've got.  You can't do that otherwise.

I believe the scout comes with a 20″ barrel, the varmint is 23″+.

[37L1]

Nice!

I want one but. . .  $.  :'(

[37L1]

I am also a left hand shooter.  All my rifles are right handed.  You too can shoot that way, it's not that big of deal.  I have the varmint but in 223, if you really want it in 22-250 buy the only option available here and shoot it.

[37L1]

I know for sure that they are importing the 1/8 223 Varmint in T3X because I got one.

[37L1]

They are different sizes per caliber. 223 vs. 308 vs. 30-06 etc.

[37L1]

You know that the magazines come in different sizes, right?  You may want to specify which one you need.

[37L1]

Check the area of the problem cases near the case head with calipers.  Compare that to a new, unfired case.  It could be that the brass is expanding in that area causing your chambering issue.

Welcome…

I hear similar stories from most people who actually give the T3 a chance…If you are an honest unbiased person I can't see how anyone could not buy a T3 after they have handled the gun and compare other guns in its price range.

The only thing I wish and hope they upgrade in the future is being able to unload the gun with safety on…  It would be nice, I can't see this upgrade blowing up the price since they already have the design on other rifles in the TiKKA / SAKO family….

+1 on the safety.
