    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....

    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.
