We recently purchased a Savage 93R17TR for my father's birthday. It was used but was sold a s a low round count gun. After taking it out we noticed that there was alot of powder burning down the sides of the spent cartridges. The backs of them were bowed out and the primer strikes looked light. The accuracy is way off compared to my .22 MarkII TR. Is the headspace adjustable on this gun as in the centerfire model 93's? It actually looks like teh bolt handle to receiver interface is what determined headspace - I hope I am wrong though. The face of the receiver that contacts the base of the bolt handle is worn a little.

When you close the bolt and put pressure forward and let go it snaps back a bit.
