Does anyone have any experience with the Laredo? Are they pushfeed or are they CRF and claw extractor?

I also have the .300 Win Mag. with CRF.

Steve, I believe you have written about your rifle before. Got any good accuracy loads to share? Also, how did you go about barrel break-in, if any; and is your rifle picky about seating length like mine is?

Powderman,
Hi an accurate load in my rifle is 81.9g 0f AR2217 (H1000) With 190 Sierra MK Seated .010 of the lands.
I have not had enough time to do much testing for a while,Plus over here there is not a very big range of powders to choose from im hoping to get some REL22 ive seen from other posts on here that it works excellent in the 300win mag.
I broke the barrel in clean scrub after every shot for the first 10 then every 5 for about another 20 now now after anything from 10-20.
When i get some more good accurate loads ill let you know.

THANKS
Steve.
