Magazine Feed Problems

[4string]

I have a Savage 10FP and recently I have been having problems with bullets chambering. I have to help them feed by guiding them in with my finger before closing the bolt.

Any ideas what may be causing this?

My wife had the same problem with her's feeding Winchester white box for some reason. All other ammo worked fine. See if the problem is ammo specific.

That is exaclty what it won't feed. I need to try some of my handloads at the range tomorrow and see if they work.

Let us know if that is it.

Put 40 rounds of other brands / handloads and only had 2 failure to feeds. Sounds like my problem is fixed sort of.
