Bought an A17 (NIB, still sealed up) yesterday with ammo for it. Took it home, stripped it down and cleaned it. Loaded it (hard to get 10 rounds in the magazine) and stepped out the back door to shoot it. No scope on it, just wanted to see if it worked. Fired one shot and the magazine fell out. Replaced magazine and fired another shot and the magazine fell out. Fixed that and fired the rest of the rounds. Replaced the A17 ammo with Hornady 17 grain hmr vmax and all of them fired with no problems. I will be sending it back to Savage because when I pull the trigger it is not smooth. It feels like it is rubbing across a piece of sand paper. No, I didn't even touch the trigger assembly when I cleaned it. It was already clean and well oiled. Also, trying to adjust the AccuTrigger doesn't seem to do anything. This is just like one of my Bmags (I have three of them - I am a slow learner).
