Has anyone heard of this one? My brand new Savage Arms 'Impulse' (straight-pull bolt) kept jamming in the worst way -- the bolt would start to unlock and then freeze in the semi-unlocked position and could NOT be reseated or opened until everything cooled down. The local dealer and gunsmith examined it and found tiny cracks in the casing that apparently interfered with the bolt's ball bearing locking system. Savage is sending a new rifle replacement. I guess we'll see. An engineering design flaw?
I would be asking for a refund. There is no telling how many of those made it out of the factory with that issue as well.
