I went to remove the screws on my scope rail to determine if they were 6/32 or 8/32 in order to buy a 20 MOA rail. I was happy to see they were now 8/32 Torx...but there's a big problem.

I noticed the screws were very loose and the one closest to the barrel seemed a bit long for the hole. Actually, both forward screw hole look pretty shallow. I put the rail on top of the receiver and installed the front screw only. Crap! the rail is loose! and the screw is tight. yea thats right, bottomed out and the rail is loose on the receiver. I looked at all the screws and they're all the same length.

Savage shipped this knowing the front screws will bottom out before the rail even tightens up. i'm calling Savage . This is stupid. What else is wrong with this gun? I thought Savage was supposed to be pretty good. Fundamental flaw like this is poor QC.
