I've been searching for anyone else who has this issue and didn't seem to find one so sorry if I missed a post. But I just got my new Savage 10FCP-K in 308 out to the range and happy to report it's a shooter. But I did discover that it has a problem with getting jammed up when feeding a new cartridge. I hope it's because the crappy mag it came with otherwise I'm not sure how to fix it. The cartridge will get almost all the way into battery (maybe a 1/4 of an inch remaining) without the base of the case being in the bolt face, and since it's not lined up it won't go any further. You have to back off a bit then go forward again to line it up then it goes in. Hard to describe without seeing it, but I hope you all get the picture.
Anyone ever see this before? Any thoughts on how to fix it?
Darn strange.

Thanks all.
