Some of you all may remember that I had to send a rifle back to Savage because there was a burr in the chamber that did not allow the bolt to retract and eject the spent cartridge.
I got the rifle back today. Savage reamed the chamber and then polished the chamber. I got it home and remounted the scope and was able to take it out and shoot a few times. Everything worked as it was supposed to. However, I did not recieve compensation for my shipping or trouble. After sighting in with some factory winchester 140 gr powerpoints I decided to try my 120 Nosler ballistic tip handloads. I got a 3 shot 0.436 inch group at 100 yards. Today in KY we had winds gusting up to 20 mph so it was not a great day to shoot so I was very pleased with the group.
