[QUOTE="bomberodevil, post: 2612013, member: 23175"] I’ve followed your story from the beginning, and I really feel bad for you. I own one CA, a Mesa in 6.5 CM that I got for my grandkids deer hunts. It shoots great, cycles fine, no problems. But I’ve heard of many CA issues, especially with the Ridgeline in the heavier cartridges. I know there’s a fair amount of engineering and complex parts fitting that goes into building a rifle, and I get it that things can go wrong. I don’t necessarily blame them for having issues with occasional rifles. But what CA is doing to you and to others is just very poor customer relations. It’s obvious to everyone reading this story that there is a manufacturing issue with your rifle, and CA isn’t taking care of the problem. I’d have to think strongly about considering purchasing another CA. As the opposite customer viewpoint, a couple of years ago on this forum, a high member of the Bergara management team came on a post involving a site member who had purchased a Bergara and wasn’t satisfied with the workmanship of the rifle. The Bergara manager, who I can’t remember his name or title, went over backwards to satisfy that purchaser and others who had chimed in. While I can’t remember the manager’s name or the details, I’ll never forget that Bergara came on a public site and stood behind their product. [/QUOTE]
