[QUOTE="tankgijohn72, post: 1882451, member: 77441"] How does it shoot? I will take it off your hands for $400 if it shoots!. I know that its not something that you want to do with a new rifle, but if savage wont touch it, take a look at the chamber hones that are out there. Stupid easy to use. Keep it out of the throat. I have a cva .243 i bought for my 2 year old daughter to use (needed some time for load development...). Anyways, had a rough chamber that was hard to extract with handloads. Similar machining marks to what you had. Used a flex hone chamber hone and cleaned it up quickly. Accuracy still good. Yes i realize that you may be hesitant to try it on a $900 rifle, whereas i used it on a $150 rifle. Just saying its an option. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
