Just bought a new savage 11 in a 7mm08. Yesterday was the first day I got a chance to shoot it. Shoots great but it's not throwing my empty cases out after I fire. It's like the ejector isn't holding onto the casing long enough to clear the chamber and eject. Any suggestions or advice?
 
Its your extractor not working properly, take your bolt out and see if extractor is stuck or missing, if so contact Savage.
 
Are you operating the bolt really slow? They will do that sometimes if you baby the bolt. The shell will come out of the extractor when it clears the barrel and hits the inside of the action before it clears the cutout.
Lift the bolt,and pull the bolt back faster.I bet your problem will stop happening.
 
I don't baby the bolt. no matter how hard I rip that thing, it is just not throwing it. I contacted savage and they wanted me to ship the gun back. I had them send me all new parts instead for no charge. I even cleaned the heck out of the extractor too. Thought it could be something that simple.
