The bevel on the Ejector was found & shared by & for Savage enthusiasts.. Savage Arms just finally caught on. It’s a problem which has existed in cartridges with less taper for many decades, but because of the widespread success of the 6.5CM, the problem with jamming became widespread. I don’t know who first figured it out, (probably Fred, but who knows), I believe it’s been called Shaved Ejector. And many in the now have shared the beveled Ejector mod with everyone who experiences the problem. It’s mentioned in this thread. https://www.savageshooters.com/showt...or-and-ejector
At least Savage finally took note.
My model 10 was made in 2008 and the Factory Ejector it came with has the full circumference bevel. But it’s very shallow, not the same as the the modification.
Here is the modification itself.
