I had a T3 VARMINT with the 1-8 twist and there was nothing great about that one. I just found a used T3 LITE in 1-8 and thinking about trying one more time.

I have never purchased match grade ammo, I have tried FB bullets, this  morning I had some luck with the 53 gr VMAX & 26grs of Varget set a little closer to the lands, also I used a test group with 69 MKS and 22.5grs of AA 2230 .690″ not bad I wish I had some AA 2015 I remember this working well in small calibers before?

Windy day I took the T3 to the range I used charges of 25 and 25.5 grs of Varget, 55 gr Berger Match and 53gr. VMAX BULLETS seated at .010 off the lands. One good group with the 53 gr VMAX. I will try again when the conditions are better also I will pick up the 69 gr MKS to try.

The recoil lug is definitely  in the slot, I have some 53 gr VMAX on the way (bullets are hard to find) I cleaned the bolt but did not take it apart. I have shot off of a bi-pod and sand bags which were placed  behind the sling stud. I also picked up some 55 gr FB Berger HP MATCH bullets that will be the next thing I try?
