I have a t3 varmint in 308 .. It's as ugly as a hat full ...but so accurate with just about any factory ammo
I would love a wood stock .. But as its my back of the ute / crap weather gun ..guess I will leave it (as i hate denting walnut)
You very rarely hear a bad word about the T3s
Cheers Mark

I must agree, having seen a very quick shot take down a running Sambar with ease. Can't argue the accuracy, particularly compared to my variable rifle...

Hmmm, I actually have that brass in my desk draw. Want them back?

Ive got a T3 Varmint ss in 204 with meopta glass, its been a great rifle and has paid for itself many times over in fox scalps, mostly used from the window or bonnet.

T3's are a great rifle.

Personally I always like something a bit different, but if you're after results a T3 can't be beaten for value.

I guess it would be remiss of me if I didn't "finalise"

Thanks Mark , I'm hopeful it will be a shooter but have only had the opportunity over a short 50 yards so far
