Nettershakes;
I'm sorry nobody has taken time to attempt an answer for you. No expert here, but if it shoots OK, I wouldn't fuss..since most .22s are not terribly expensive. It does sound like an original manufacturing flaw, so if it bothers you I would write or call Savage and let them give you an evaluation.
Who knows, they may have you send it in to be repaired or replaced.
Don't feel bad over having been ignored..I have experienced the same thing. Some forums really get a profusion of answers..others ? ...But I really like my Savages, so I stick with it !
