    93R17... Ammo geyser..


    Pretty disappointing that Savage makes a very accurate 17 HMR and puts a POS magazine syatem on it.. My Bud's gun.. Several times today we had ammo spewing all over the place. I dubbed this rifle the geyser gun. Anyhow what is the cure?FWIW I have several Savage center fire rifles and no issues..

    Mine will puke a round or two if I seat a mag to hard. I have learned to load with the bolt closed. Never happened again.
