    I'm new and intend to start posting more.  My .223 T3 Lite has become my favorite rifle and just acquired a T3 stainless varmint in .223.  I have other rifles that are a little more accurate but I love the simplicity and attention to correct machining of the action.  I am in Southeast Missouri after having left Illinois.  Missouri, if anything, is a firearm friendly state and us heavily armed rural folks manage to not shoot each other (excludes K.C and St Louis). I hand-load for 6 calibers and was bit by the accuracy bug 23 years ago. Looking forward to future interactions here….

    Reloader 15 @ 25 gr shoots under an inch with my smallest group at .53.

    The Varget worked well, especially for a starting load.  25.3 gr (compressed) in a new case with 205m primer.  I also had some 335 loads.  The vmax 60 just doesn't work with 335.  More to follow. Thanks.

    Thanks.  Will try the Varget.
