I haven't shot the 90 grain fusion rounds through the LMT yet, but they work very well through the Criterion. Both guns are sub-MOA at 100yards if I'm doing my part. I had kind of an adventure with the magazines. So far the best I've found are the ASC 10 and 15 rounders. The PRI 25 round mags double feed/follower collapses in mag. The Barrett Gen2 30 round mags are also GTG but they are like an AK47 mag in terms of length under the rifle. Pretty hard to shoot from the bench using the 30 rounders.
The first day I took the LMT out, I had 15 mph winds gusting to 30 mph and it was still only marginally impacting my performance at 250 yards.
I don't know if 1 in 6.5twist is the sweet spot, but I know some folks had issues with the 90grain rounds out of the 1 in 7 early on.
At 800 it's easier to get hits on steel than either of my .308s.
