[QUOTE="Rick Richard, post: 1080106, member: 75895"] I had a LRH in 300 WSM which was a heck of a shooter. At 300 yards it would print 7/16 to 1 1/16 groups with Berger 185 Hybrids. Stupid me I sold it. As far as the brake, Savage made this an 'open or closed' design. If you want the option to use it in both configurations, than you will have to keep it clean. Cleaning with brake cleaner (aerosol can) will need to be done after every shooting or the fouling will eventually lock the mechanism in place. Just spray in and around the brake and it will remove debris....no big deal. Most folks want the advantage of a brake and therefore keep it open and don't worry about if it locks in place or not. I would not hesitate on purchasing this model since it is a proven shooter. [/QUOTE]
