Savage 10TR le/military

I would not worry, there must be 500 of these sold in Canada and there are maybe a half dozen bent that we know of, however, at the beginning when we were trying to figure out if it was the pic rail I put a straight edge along the rail and out to the end of the barrel, you could see from one side to the other that something was out. Also you could use a boresight.
Good luck. Hope it is a straight shooter!
A standard manufacturers defect warranty, shooting 3 feet to the right, I Assume would come under that umbrella!
I spoke to the warranty center here in Quebec and was told that they received an email from Debora at Savage USA that all their paperwork is in order and they will proceed with the order.
Let's see how long it will take from this point forward.

Well that may be positive news, hopefully they will come quickly and put our rifles at the top of the pile for repair, Grech is backed up at least 2-3 months!
Thanks, I will wait till next week and if no reply, I will rattle his chain again! I have to wonder, what quality control they have in the accuracy department, I would have thought they would at least test fire or bore sight these rifles, and if they do, the guy doing it should open his/her eyes! Not a good start for a rifle that was reportedly put up to LE/MIL folks so they could see how great these are! It is not that there will be a lemon or two, but the follow up and length of time to rectify the situation is a real problem!
Follow-up on my post, called SFRC to advise them of the issue. Awesome lady (Marcie) at SFRC was aware of the issue and offered to send replacement immediately. Received the replacement within 2 weeks. Curious of what serial numbers that have been identified as problematic? Mine was J348547, replacement J348612.

I e-mailed him last week, still haven't heard back.
I love dealing with SFRC. They have the 20" barrel one on sale right now for $669. If I'm seriously considering grabbing one of these.
Awesome, maybe he will do the same for the rest of us, I will call his office tomorrow!

I am the proud owner of a Savage 10TR which I purchased from SFRC during the inital special offer for MIL/LEO. Haven't had any issues yet, accuracy and quality have been great. I spent some time building loads and settled on the following: 168gr A-Max with 44.5grs of IMR 4166 and a CCI BR primer packed in Nickle plated FC brass. Currently I am changing out the accustock for an MDT TAC 21 chassis with skeleton stock in FDE. I have a Vortex HS LR 6-24x50 FFP perched on top.

Thanks for the compliments guys.
Although I specified it was for a '10TR with a heavy barrel, Boyds' sent it to me with a skinny little barrel channel. It took about 3 hours for sanding the barrel channel with different sized sockets wrapped in sandpaper. After I got it right, I put a Tung oil finish on it to seal the wood. I've not yet bedded the action, but it shoots pretty decent out to 600 yds.
