[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 2886922, member: 75779"] The nose dive did happen wth the savage mag. 2 things really helped it. Adding springs to the the Z metal under the slide plate and pointed bullets. Bear creek ballistics and Maker T Rex bullets make great bullets with pointy tips. I shoot the non tipped bullets just fine, but it isn't perfect. Never had an issue in the field though, but I've only once shot at a running deer with it...and it worked like it should. I'm working on a 44 cal belted cartridge that will beat all the other straight walled stuff right now, but it has a mag bolt face. [/QUOTE]
