[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1882447, member: 93895"] The last three savages I purchased were lightly used. Never shot them or even looked at the barrel. First thing I done was pull the barrel & ordered the barrel I wanted. But honestly I think I've saw just about everything from all of the factory rifles I've owned. I've got a custom rifle chambered from a reputable shop that everyone here knows. I won't mention the name of the shop but the chamber walls isn't the prettiest but she shoots amazing and extracts fine. So I didn't feel the need to jack around with it. But yeah, it seems that alot of the big manufactures are focused on asthetics and new features while not so much detail is always given to the most important parts of the firearm. Savage ownership has been tossed around several times in recent years. Vista already stated they was intending to sell Savage. Along with the fact that the average hourly wage at Savage is probably bear bones. I can't imagine all this would encourage an inspiring work environment. Remington & Savage ownership has been tossed around so many times & poorly managed at times and along with the Libs putting all the pressure on them that they can. It's a wonder that either one of them is still in business. But quite a few of the factory rifles I've owned had something that wasn't just right. I'm not making excuses or even saying that it should be accepted. I have sent three back to be fixed myself. It seems that if they go bang, they passed qc and send them on out. But it's not just Savage. Yes, after the 3rd replacement I would also be frustrated. [/QUOTE]
