    A longer tube may drop your ES and tighten up the groups even more-and more load development than the one primer and powder option could as well. Loading to alloy mag length rather than Magpul could also help.

    It's doable if you really want to try
    Its a single loader platform to shoot at Trentham so mag length doesnt matter. 24 or 26inch barrel is more to pick up as much velocity as practical. Primers are Fed205mar at the moment with ADI brass and BM2. I'll probably move to lapua brass though, but I need to get a barrel first and assemble a dedicated upper.

    Enough of the TR/Palma shooters wont buy a truflight that I'll pass on them as well.
