Sportsman Store is located in Kennewick with other brand weapons and magazine's if you don't like Savage Arms. Try asking Savage arms directly for warranty or manufacturer recalls.
The question on HMR .17 Savage magazines has already been sent directly also. The same as Spotrsman's text just to see if information on the issue came to distributors first.
This is a question for Savage not Sportsman's. I do know it is difficult to find a semi auto .17 that functions well
I really don't know. The guys in the hunting dept. Might be able to help you.
