110 FCP 338 Lapua Problem and Question

Hi, I just joined the forum today and have a question for 110 FCP 338 Lapua owners. I received my rifle last week and when I installed the bolt it wouldn't fully close, having mounted many scopes over the years I quickly figured out that the second from the front base screw is too long.
When I removed that screw the bolt closed easily. Then I noticed that the front screw was too long as well, it bottomed out on the barrel threads in the receiver and wasn't even touching the scope base allowing a lot of movement with the second screw out so really it was doing nothing to secure the base.
This is an easy fix, I just have to shorten the screws.
The scope base comes with the rifle and is factory installed so I was wondering if anybody else had this problem or did I get a Monday rifle?
I think that this rifle is awesome and can't wait to shoot it, this minor setback hasn't put me off Savages rifle in the least.

some one may have put the shorter screws in the back base

I checked that already and all the screws are the same length, I wonder if they just grabbed the wrong screws at the factory using all the same length.
