I purchased a Savage Model 11 308 and needed some rails mounted quickly last winter on the way to a hunt in Adairsville, and went to Cabelas in Acworth also.
So they had the rails and I ask can you put them on? Sure the guy says, so I get to the camp and mount the scope and the gun would not fire. I thought I had enough experience to figure it out but without any positive results I took it to a Gunsmith a couple miles away.
He found they put the wrong screws in the rails which didn't allow the bolt to close far enough to allow it to fire.
Cost me 95.00 so I tool the receipt back to them and they did refund the cost. I'll never have them touch a gun I own again. Over priced store anyway!!
