[QUOTE="pjmdy, post: 1998245, member: 46237"] I have a Savage MSR-15 Long Range in .224 Valkyrie. It is supposed to be shooting heavier for caliber .224 bullets of 90 grains or better. I had problems once with it with recycling and sent it back to the factory where they said it was a gas block adjustment issue. I took it to the range with boxes of various factory made ammo. Keyholing was abundant, practically everything I tried was doing it. I sent it back again, this time it was given a new barrel. Twist rate is 1 in 7. Now it shoots nice tight groups and no more keyholing or recycling issues. It may pay to send your rifle back to the manufacturer. [/QUOTE]
