[QUOTE="pjmdy, post: 1729687, member: 46237"] I have been down that road myself recently.. I bought a Savage MSR15 long range in .224 Valkyrie. Shortly after I also bought a Ruger Hawkeye Long Range Target in 6.5 PRC. T took both to the range to zero them in. Tha Savage worked fine with both Federal Eagle FMJ and Federal Premium. When it came to the Hornady ELD Match, it balked. The action refused to cycle. Then I tried the Ruger. The bolt would not open no matter what. So, in the space of one day I had to send both back to the factory. Savage said it was a gas block issue on theirs, Ruger didn't say anything but the bolt works fine now. To say the least, this was a frustrating time!! I haven't been able to get back to the range yet, but hope to soon. [/QUOTE]
