Too bad that a couple of tiny issues are keeping the MK-II from being one of the greatest rifles ever. You'd think Savage would have fixed the mag and extraction problems by now. God knows there have been enough complaints over the years!
By the way, are newbies able to post photos here? I can't find a way to do it.
Thanks, Fiddler. Maybe I need to give the Savage folks a call.
