[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 1704666, member: 18849"] +1 on ERod579's post; go & no-go gauges only reference shoulder to base length. The continuous ring kind of leads to presence of carbon ring or the copper ring mentioned above. Also a chamber not concentric to bore will do this but not all the way around the bullet. The same would be true with very "crooked" hand loads. When I mentioned CLR I forgot to mention it will damage blueing (blueing is controlled "rust"). A smith might be able to clean up your chamber with a reamer by running it a hair deeper. Being it's a Savage money might be better spent on a replacement barrel. Keep us posted [/QUOTE]
