He shot one group less than .350" and the proceeded to whack away at pop cans loaded with water at about 150 yards. Not too big of a deal but it really is a fun gun to shoot. I bought the gun second hand for my RH son but it has also become a loaner gun for folks looking to learn on. Amazing trigger on it!!

Dober Mark- In case you're not aware, the 6.5x55 T3s are built for the long (30'06) magazines and bolt stops. FWIW, in my T3 6.5 Swedes, I have no clearance issues when seating 140 A-Maxes out to 3.225 inches OAL or the 142 SMKs out to 3.118" OAL. Pursuit may be, it seems to me, perfect without possession.
