RE: Headspace problem????
Maybe be a bad box of ammo.
Could be headspace, that's easy enough to fix on a Savage barrel.
Could be a very rough chamber. When you fire a rifle the firing pin strikes the primer and the cartridge moves foward then the primer detonates then the case moves rearward against the bolt face and expands. If the chamber is too rough it will not allow the case to move rearward and this results in space behind your primers allow them to be blown out.
Could be too much oil inthe barrel. Liquid does not compress so if you got too much in there you could actually put an oil ring in you barrel. This happens when oil builds up in front of the bullet and finally the bullet passes around the oil and the oil forces the steel barrel to expand and you get a bulge ring in your barrel. Always wipe out the bore completely dry before shooting it.
Look down the inside of your barrel and make sure this has not happend before you shoot it again.
If you are blowing primers you have passed 80,000 psi unless #3 is happning. Excessive oil in the barrel will certainly do this.
