    There's a reason the t3 varmint has a heavy barrel...

    Eventually mine will get a heavier contour barrel to be a better heat sink, but at the mo I'm working with what I've got and working with the known characteristics.

    If you're building for a single long shot on a clean cold barrel - fine. just remember in training to treat it that way. Competitions or club shoots you want something else.

    You know, if you need 100 rounds to kill a deer, maybe hunting isn't your sport.
