Hi,

I'm new to this forum.

I recently bought a Savage 110 Apex Hunter XP .270 from Cabela's. It is very hard to attach the (empty) magazine to the rifle. I need 2 hands to press the magazine until it clicks -- one hand pressing on the barrel while one hand push the magazine. Is this normal or am I missing something? I have followed the manual and install the magazine when the riflle is in the "mid safe" mode.

Does this look like the correct mag?

I do not see a way to upload photos to this forum. I uploaded the photos of the rifle and the magazine to Google photo. These are the links to the photos:
