That is not right, the wget being used twice should be MISS then HIT,
just like any oter cacheable traffic.

The nasty thing with Vary:User-Agent is that browsers UA string embeds
so much plugin info they are changing between each different client
request. Which defeats the purpose of caching one clients reply for use
by other clients.

NP: what you had with the store_miss should be working.
 Are you using Squid-3.5 ?
 How are you identifying a fail ?
