Savage Elite Precision 6.5 Creedmoor.

I'm having feeding problems where the loaded cartridge jumps up, jams against the bolt face upper rim and won't go into battery. When it's stuck I release bolt pressure (or pull slightly back) then the round would fall back down into the bolt face then I can continue on. Extremely annoying and need input on what could be causing this before I contact Savage.

-Round count is currently at 81.
-Happens on all ammo, factory and handloads.
-Using 3 MDT metal magazines (ZERO feed issues when I use them in my other MDT HS3 bolt action).
-Mag could be empty or full and still have feeding issues.
-Doesn't matter if I feed it fast or slow either.

Top picture: Cartridge stuck against upper portion of bolt face outer rim.

Bottom picture: Forward pressure released, cartridge drops into chamber so I can feed into battery.

As the title states I've been having some issues with the optics (yes plural) on my 716 DMR G2.

When I bought the rifle I also bought a Trijicon 5.5x50 with .308 BDC reticle. First time out at the range I tried to zero it at 100 meters (we use the metric system). I couldn't get it on paper at 100. I tried 50 meters and finally got on paper, but the POI was about 10 inches high after maxing out the elevation adjustment. So I figured the factory 20 MOA top rail was not something the Trijicon was made for. So I decided to change the optic. I managed to sell the Trijicon and bought a Sig Sauer Tango 4 6-24 x 50 and fitted it with a Contessa SBT02 FW - 30mm mount. I laser bore sighted at 25 meters and managed to get the POI and POA to align. Next time out to the range I was on paper at 100 meters but POI was about 8 inches high. I started adjusting elevation and it went 8 more clicks and bottomed out. I checked the owners manual for the zero stop function and I already had it adjusted all the way (did this when I was bore sighting.) So yet again I'm left with an optic that cannot dial enough elevation to zero this rifle on 100m.

What do you guys think? Am I missing something obvious or am I just buying the wrong scope/rings combinations to get this rifle to zero. Groupings are good, I was using 147gn Mil-surplus ammo and getting MOA groupings, just 6 inches above POA. I've been thinking of hand loading some heavier bullets and maybe zeroing for 200m, but I would really like to zero it with the mil-surplus ammo because it's cheap. Reloading components brass, propellant, bullets, etc. have become ridiculously expensive in South Africa so keeping a semi-auto fed, especially in 7.62, can become an endless money pit.
I'm taking a financial knock every time I buy a scope new and sell it as used a few weeks later. I would really like the next scope I buy to be the last one I buy for this rifle, at least for the foreseeable future.

I would really appreciate any advice or recommendations. Are there any other 716 G2's out there who have had similar problems? What optics are being used successfully on these rifles with similar ammo combinations?

I would like to add a QD mount to my 9" 300BLK pistol for a 1 3/8-24 hub compatible suppressor. What system can you guys recommend?

One option I am considering is a 45 cal 3-lug adapter and machining the barrel so that the adapter will be flush with the current muzzle. That would maintain the current storage length without shortening the barrel. The other advantage of .45 cal would be that I have no 3-lug guns in that caliber and this would avoid the .30 cal suppressor ending up on a 9mm 3-lug barrel.

Background: I live/hunt in the mountains of Western NC where the forests are thick and steep. The 300BLK pistol with a 2x prism optic has become my favorite hunting tool due to its ease of carry and more than sufficient accuracy for the relative short distances (<150 yard). The only disadvantage of shooting the pistol with cheek weld on the smooth buffer tube is the deafening noise from the short barrel. Hence the suppressor.

I prefer to sell this locally so I don’t have to bother figuring out how the heck to ship this beast. If no one local to Michigan or northern IN wants it then I’ll look into shipping arrangements and cost.

This is turn key and ready to go. Fully setup with the Mr Bullet Feeder and extra trays and stuff not listed, this setup would run you north of $2500 to piece together. Looking for $2000 locally and I’ll throw in some 5.56 components like powder and boolits.

I’m open to trades on it for mil/mil FFP glass or a big boomer in 300 NM, 28 Nosler, or 7 PRC

I’ve probably loaded 2000-3000 on it. I bought it brand new.

Ignore the junk and the 9mm ammo. Things got a little chaotic redoing this room.

I see there are people will send their scope in to get modified so the turret is non-locking, this always puzzles me.
Can't we simply unlock the turret and leave it unlocked? This way you will always have the flexibility

I am mystified. Or just tired of being lied to.

Evidently, cockpit doors are not locked or even closed. And an old woman without even a utility knife can just barge in.

No need for 2 of these in my reloading room so I am letting one go. Excellent shape comes with a very nice delrin base I machined for it. 175.00 delivered
