[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 1614984, member: 12282"] I got a T3 Lite from a friend who did not handload and got tired of 6.5x55 ammo. $550 used, as I knew he had not shot out the barrel (he was giving me is brass, and managed 4 boxes). Anyhow, I knew he was not pleased with accuracy as well. I handload and am generally pretty proficient. Figured I could do better. I got a several sub MOA loads together, though not all were temp and barometric pressure consistent. Best bullet 5 years ago was the 140 A-max. I am interested in heavier pills. The throat on the Tikka is measured in fathoms, I swear. As noted above, you load to get the bullet as close as possible -- you'll never get to the lands as far as I know, except perhaps with a 160 gr roundnose.... But its my favorite gun to carry. Has a nice older Zeiss on top that is pretty light. [/QUOTE]
