[QUOTE="oregonreloader, post: 892829, member: 71958"] I just got off a phone call from Savage regarding my B.MAG. Debbie (my contact there, and a really nice lady) told me that Savage's head gunsmith had looked at it. He replaced the stock with one of a new design. Evidently Savage determined that the original design wasn't working right. He also replaced the trigger with a new one. Debbie told me the adjustment of the trigger is somewhat different than the earlier one, but even after a couple of questions I'm still not sure of what the differences are. I guess I'll find out in a few days when the rifle is returned to me. Debbie also told me that the smith had "tested" it for extraction, ejection and accuracy. Regarding the latter, Debbie said the test data is being included with the return and that the rifle was "well within [Savage's] accuracy spec." Debbie also told me that the 25gn cartridge was more accurate than the 20gn cartridge, and that the accuracy testing was done using the 25gn cartridge. I haven't found any 25gn ammo locally so I'll have to expand my search radius. I look forward to shooting the "fixed" B.MAG and I'll report my results here. [/QUOTE]
