@HOWA308 so you are single feeding these 140 VLDS at the moment or have you gone for the long action mag & bolt stop?

Mag feeding the VLDs, got a long 5 shot 270 mag off EBay, then modified bolt stop myself. Easy as!

Yep got the very same gun myself and the throat is way to long as standard for the mag. I've got a fix too but it's not a long mag....

Nice we rifle and shoots well for the price. What you shooting, any photos?

Set barrel back and re-chamber?

No, I've got a Shilen select match barrel and a short throat 30 degree improved reamer which I had before I bought the T3. I thought about using the original barrel but the reports from gunsmiths tell me that the barrel steel on these T3's do not ream well if just trying to do an improved chamber. According to the info on the reamer the 140 VLD's hit the lands at 2.873". I had a Sako M591 that I was originally going to use but elected to buy a T3 as a donor.
