I have the exact same one sir in this caliber.
It does not chamber most factory sporting ammunition.
The exception is the 150 grain FMJ Federal brand.
Myself I hand load for mine using always a full sizing of the brass because I found out it has match tolerance chamber, also with a short throat. Winchester Super X 180 grain PP ammo, out of box of twenty, easily six would not even seat into the chamber. It's because of the tighter tolerance of match quality chamber. Plus even the same 180s I could chamber and fire it shot them like buckshot at 100 yards and the bolt literally smacked into the action back cap.
I found myself, my rifle shot better with bullets of 168 grain or less, handloads to Garand pressures.
The trigger is externally adjustable within a metric Allen screw positioned in the trigger guard. You can accidently make this so light is almost impossible to feel the trigger reset. So I advise keep it 2.5-3 pounds lightest set.
I found out through numerous experiments, 125 grain Accubond bullets quite a step better in accuracy versus 125 Ballistic Tip.
To remove the action from the stock you have to hold back the cocking handle in the specific spot or it will not work.
At the range I found after three shots you needed at least half hour cool down or the group's opened up from MOA to much worse.
Make sure your safety is either fully on or fully off otherwise the action freezes up and leaves you with a jammed rifle bolt. Very disconcerting at first.
Take care of those magazines. They are very expensive.
It is a nice handling deer rifle once you are used to the oddest feeling trigger I ever used before.
Canward Inc. imports them. My review of this rifle is on thier webpage. To thier credit it is unedited by them.
Cheers

Edit: Regards the safety position. In my previous post I meant don't knock it into midway position while manually working the action only. It did not lock up during the firing sequence. Sorry if I misled anyone!
