Ar15 feed ramps are part of the barrel. An axis is part of the action. Not even close to the same design.

That's why you need a feed ramp cut on the chamber mouth of the barrel......just like an AR-15.

Im not about to rechamber that barrel after grinding it all up. Ive not heard that as a feeding solution from anyone before so it must not be widely practiced on bolt actions.
Flat lander, you asked for a Gunsmith. You asked for a Savage Specialist. Sharpshooter is the renowned Savage Gunsmith. You could not have received more sound advice for your Savage.
The Dunning-Kruger effect is alive and well.
If the suggestion is to cut the barrel just like an ar15, that is not sound advice as is is 100% different design than a bolt action barrel. If you meant cutting a single ramp into the shank, Im all ears.

Is your rifle centerfeed or staggerfeed?
Sounds like you are not following the advice that Fred has offered, there are not many, if any that qualify more than him. I suggest you reach out to him and schedule having him fix the issue.

Maybe I mislead you by calling it a feed ramp... it is actually a feed cone. For some reason I can't get the pic to post.
