[QUOTE="Frog4aday, post: 1817684, member: 9308"] I'm confused by this. Did you put in a NEW firing pin, or are you still using the one you've modified twice now? My gut says get a new, untampered with firing pin & fresh spring and try again. Inconsistent ignition could be the issue. Also, Savage bolt actions don't like a lot of torque on that rear screw. Perhaps back that off to 10 or 15 ft/lbs and see how it shoots? [/QUOTE]
