[QUOTE="Brad Norman, post: 2837292, member: 33163"] Thank you for sharing your experience Sir and providing the information to fix the problem you encountered. My only problems with the Savage rifles I've owned have been with the extractors and ejectors. For some reason Savage does a really good job and has been quite innovative with other aspects of their rifles but the extractors and ejectors are not robust. Savage would improve their reputation (and eventually sales) significantly if they would make those parts bomb proof. My problems generally occurred during handload development as I reached the upper end of a warm load, I'd stick an ejector or more often knock the extractor out of position. This same "issue" has not been prevalent with other brands. The little fingernail extractors on Remingtons are also in need of improvement and should be made more "beefy" but Remington extractors have held up much better than Savage's. This has been my experience with several Savage rifles and of course your mileage may vary. SF - [/QUOTE]
