Holy Smokes! This is a new one. Did u remove that front screw or was it gone when you noticed the problem?
Any abnormal sound, recoil etc while you were shooting? Did your ammo feed and eject ok? Was the bolt hard to operate?
This gun definitely needs to be looked at by a pro before you attempt to shoot it again. I'd call Savage first, and if you don't get the help you need there go see a smith.
