I have a model 10 FCP-K .223 centerfeed that is having feed issues. It will randomly crash the round into the bottom of the breach causing the bolt to hit the side of the round and jam the round either denting the casing or the bullet nose. If I baby the bolt it will be more reliable, but I do not feel that this is normal. I contacted Savage, and they shipped me a mag follower and mag bottom. After changing these out, it is still acting the same. My hunch is that the mag lips are too close together. Looking for some feedback/help. My next step is to ship (on my dime) to a Savage warranty depot (i live in Canada), but this will put me out for an undetermined amount of time, and if it is just a magazine, I could just go get a new one locally for a bit more money, but no rifle down time.
