Hello - I am having a problem that has been discussed elsewhere so I will not repeat my entire saga. I bought a new Savage Model 10T a while back and installed a new Vortex scope. It has never been right and just yesterday the people at Vortex said the receiver and barrel are not properly aligned and using a 20MOA rail will solve my problem. On the surface I have no problem doing this but I am curious as to why this is happening. Is my rifle defective? It doesn't seem like this is normal.

Real question. Should I expect Savage to replace the barrel, or the entire rifle? Is Savage good about addressing these kinds of issues or should I expect a lot of pushback from them.

Thanks.
