Hi all....just went for the first time to shoot my new xp2 223 and out of 15 rounds it only shot 6. The rounds that did not fire had a light strike. I did clean the bolt and rifle before shooting....savage only wants me to send in the whole rifle....I soaked the bolt in some Balistrol for a couple of hours.....any other ideas....I am not going to try to take apart the bolt. Savage did provide me with a return label, but I will have to remove my new scope and it will be by them at least 3 weeks.
i was shooting Federal 55gr military grade boxed 223
