[QUOTE="ofbandg, post: 2794222, member: 91402"] I'm not a Savage guy but if the front screw is contacting the bolt on any of the rifles I've worked on the first thing I look at is putting a spacer, (usually a washer), between the front bottom metal and the stock. If you are compressing the stock it may also be compromising the magazine well fit and you want to keep that contact from being too tight as it may put upward pressure on the receiver and change the bedding contact.
