radial scratch on breech of my Mark II, any concern?
Hi all,
I am new to Savage rifles and just purchased a Mark II .22lr. Upon getting home and inspecting it closely, I discovered a small scratch on the breech face that appears below the indentation that the right-side extractor seats into and curves downward in a radial direction. I have included photos to make clear what I see. If anyone can tell me whether this may affect the functioning of the rifle I would be very happy for that information. It appears the scratch is beyond the area where the rim of a cartridge would seat. I have not fired the rifle yet. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
