I've yet to have any feeding issues with mine, but I have noticed if you baby the bolt when you cycle it the round can pop out of the feed lips a little early and hang up. Cycle it with some authority (like all bolts should be cycled) and you shouldn't have any issues.

hmm, interesting; in order to avoid those jams i actually have to cycle the gun really carefully and push the bolt forward with just my thumb. If i grab the bolt handle and work it a little faster like you want to make a quick follow up shot it goes all wrong / hangs up.Quote:

Well, considering they just came out with this 10-round magazine this year, I'm going to go waaaaaaaay out on a limb and guess 2015? LOL Ship date for this review rifle from the factory to me was June 26th of this year so it's probably about as new and up-to-date as they get.Quote:

We're talking about the magazine, not the rifle model itself. Yes, the 10FCP-SR has been around a couple years now, but as was mentioned previously they used different bottom metal that accepted Accuracy International (AI) mags (as shown in your two links). The mags in question - the NEW Savage 10-round polymer mags - were just introduced this year (2015) on this and a couple other models.Quote:
