Just got my 114 American Classic in 7mm. Took it the range and fired 6 shots, did the usual break in process and cleaned the gun after each checking for issues. Shot number 6 had trouble extracting, so much so that I had to wrap the bolt in a towel and strike it with a pretty good size rock to get the bolt open. I examined all 6 of the fired cases and each had a noticable short deep scratch in the same spot right on/near the belt. Each case was getting worse. So I looked at the crown (I guess you would call it that) of the barrel and there is a pretty good burr that is affecting accuracy/extraction. About every other case is getting stuck now.

This is my first savage and I just purchased it last week. I'm heading into the shop Monday to see what my options are. Other than that, I really like the feel of the rifle.
