Looks like a new player on the Savage barrel market.

makey fixey and LMK. Interested to see the outcome with a nice snug sighting system.

Ok. GOt it settled down some and found that there is a problem with the barrel, or more correctly the barrel extension. The right side feed ramp is fine. The left side is a little on the narrow side with burrs at the top that will, best case, score the jacket of a round being chambered heavily or grab the bullet and jam the rifle. The result is that shots cluster into 2 groups about an inch and a half apart segregated by which side of the magazine the round came from. Each group is really tight, which gives me hope. Going to get to work with a polishing setup on a Dremel and clean the feed ramps up when I get a chance and give it another go.
