The mag feed in Savage rifles is easily taken care of. The reason the rounds don't feed is that the angle the front of the round is presented to in relationship to the chamber is incorrect, it is too flat. Just take the mag guide and bend it slightly forward until the round will feed. This will also tighten the mag so it won't rattle. you will feel it. Just take some time to do it a little at a time. Then, after that you will never have another feed problem. Takes about 5 minutes.
