[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 2185476, member: 18849"] as a rule short cases do not work well in the Savage actions. Wth the batrel off, i insert them into the bolt head and watch as i slowly rtrract them. The cade body sometimes will "wedge itself beteeen the right boly lug abuttment and the bolt guide rail. The abuttment and rail seem to "steer the case until it eventually falls out of the bolt head (drops). Using a dremmel and or small files i remove material in order to allow a smoother trip backwards for the case and cade neck. This is acommon occurence whith the 6.5 Creedmoor vsde in some rechsmbrring/ rrbsttrlbscenarios. As the Creedmoor body is larger than some like thr 260 & 408and more likely to "wedge itself and pull out of the bolt head. The shorter casres when pushed up by the ej7mectoratr at a more extreme angle to the borr, leaving less grip by the extractor and smaller arrs for the ejector to push on. I believe thete is an enhanced ejector/extractor kit available at several outlets including Savage Shootets Supply and Anothet outfit out of texas which the name is eliding me right now. I will reply with the name. Good luck [/QUOTE]
