[QUOTE="entoptics, post: 1882409, member: 104268"] No, but I sent back the bad brass on the third rifle, and they clearly put 2 and 2 together. It was MAI headstamp, and I'd tried to avoid spelling it out in previous communications. The fact that I never mentioned a specific ammo brand, and did mention early on "destroyed $20 worth of brass", along with the odd head stamp, probably made it pretty obvious to them. As mentioned though, according to [URL='https://www.savagearms.com/content?p=warranty']their own warranty[/URL], as well as [URL='https://www.savagearms.com/DAM/assets/pdf/Manuals/2019-09-23-08-32-48-1864.pdf']the owner's manual[/URL], there's no prohibition on any type of ammo, except as stated in the manual on page 4... Also, since the factory brass they fired and sent along with the third rifle had marks, it seems a bit disingenuous to have even brought it up. The guy was simply threatening/intimidating me with the false point. He clearly didn't know what he was talking about really. "The brass you sent had signs of high pressure." I said, "REALLY??? What possibly makes you think that?" he replied "Flattened primers!"...like he'd got me good... When I started explaining that he's full of crap, he realized he was in over his head and simply defaulted back to "Reloads void the warranty, but we're so nice, we're still gonna polish your chamber and send the piece of sh** back to you".
