    I've only seen him shoot his rifle out as far as 200yrds at the range, we don't hunt together so have not had a chance to shoot with him at greater distances…its been a pretty consistent Moa shooter on most groups I've seen him shoot at both 100 and 200yrds at the range though.  You would only get it better with handloads…

    thanks 😉

    Sorry forgot to add before…

    My buddy shoots both Hornady SST 154gr & 162gr ammo in his T3…I know its been the most accurate for him.  He doesn't buy any other brand of factory ammo for the gun,..I don't know if one shoots better or not…but I can ask him for you.

    Thank's dog down… i'm appreciating your help 😉
    is it possible to know the accuracy of your buddy's T3?

    Try shooting 3 quick shots as fast as you can confidently at the same POI…it seems to be the best way to get a good group with magnum calibers…  it works for me and the guys that I shoot with.  I'm assuming you are shooting a Lite barrel…

    This is our routine before hunting season, for factory bullets and shooting groups with the big calibers…we think it represents a more realistic hunting situation when you need to be quick on follow up shots.  Very rarely will you have time to sit and scope an animal for multiple shots.  Its happens but its rare.

    – Shoot 1 round into a shoot-n-see target, not worrying where it impacts as long as its clearly visible. 
    – Release the clip and reload for total 3 rounds…
    – Wait 10-15 minutes
    – Then shoot 3 shots as fast as possible using the cold bore shot marker as you point of aim.  Its easier to quickly centre on the first illuminated bullet impact versus trying to focus on lines or other points in the target. 

    Try and see if it helps with previous ammo you have tested…

    Thanks Dog Down,
    i'll try…
    But i wanna waiting for someone who use factory load, suggest me any ammo already tested on my rifle…
    Thanks
