Hello all, I'm a new member here.

I have a Savage Model 11 .308 LeftHanded.

The gun shoots great and I love it! However I've encountered a slight problem.

The rear baffle prevents the bolt from fully entering the chamber, by about an 1/8th of an inch. This is causing the bolt closing and opening to be very harsh.

If I remove the baffle, the bolt opens and closes silky smooth.

I can't figure out for the life of me why the baffle is impeding the bolt from fully entering.

Any help is appreciated!
