I looked at the T3 guarantee and it wasn't worth the paper it was written on. Basically it was that it was guaranteed with their own house load in their own range.

I've shot a few different makes and they all shot about the same other than my Zastava 223. Mind you I bought that cheap because no one could get any accuracy out of it (4" at 100m) but after suppressing it the Zastava is shooting very small groups indeed.
