    Have you tried a long drop tube? I have a home made drop tube about 500mm long and I can get around 1.5mm further settle (depending on powder) in a 284 sized case.

    It's not the sellers, I say good luck to them. It's the stupid buyers who don't do research and are prepared to pay the rates on TM. And it not just T3s that dickheads pay over the top prices for.

    Yes as per Stug. Been in place for ages but a lot of them don't abide. Maybe Leupold is now yelling a bit louder. Try Jon @ Opticzone - they generally have the best prices at anyrate.
