I will say that I have had some similar feeding issues with my Savage 114. Wish it was a floor-plate style instead of the detachable mag.

Seems like if the bolt is worked too quickly, it will ride right over the next round in the mag and not load anything.

I like it 'cause it's accurate and isn't a DG rifle since it's just a 30-06.

I've had ZERO feed issues with either Dad's .416 Rigby Ruger M77, my own M77 in 30-06, or dad's M77 30-06.

I like the RSI's too much to put a scope on them and mess up the lines so I need the Savage for long-range work.
