Your +8 is actually "4 8" which is the weight of your barrels in pounds and ounces before final finishing. The "T" is the mark for Twist Steel barrels, a composite barrel not bored from a tube of solid steel. A "4-8" set of barrels, if not seriously pitted or damaged, is usually a good candidate for shooting.
