Stable rank 3 vector bundles on $\mathbb{P}^3$ with $c_1 = 0$, $c_2 = 3$

We clarify the undecided case $c_2 = 3$ of a theorem of Ein, Hartshorne and Vogelaar [Math. Ann. 259 (1982), 541--569] about the restriction of a stable rank 3 vector bundle with $c_1 = 0$ on the projective 3-space to a general plane. It turns out that there are more exceptions to the stable restriction property than those conjectured by the three authors. One of them is a Schwarzenberger bundle (twisted by $-1$); it has $c_3 = 6$. There are also some exceptions with $c_3 = 2$ (plus, of course, their duals). We also prove, for completeness, the basic properties of the corresponding moduli spaces; they are all nonsingular and connected, of dimension 28.
