So I took my brand new Savage .308 out to the range today. Had everything setup up and ready to go. I load some factory ammo in and get ready. Range is hot and I attempt a 75 yard target to get on paper. I pull the trigger and nothing happens. I hear the click but no shot. Ok, misfire. I eject the round and check the primer. Nothing. Hrmm. I then loaded up some handloads I made and tried that. Nothing. I wasted my time today and I want to find out of this savage is a POS or if it is operator error (more than likely). Any help would be appreciated before I have to go hunt down a smith.

Here is the bolt back

And forward ... As you can see plenty of firing pin to go around.
