savage 93 17hmr

Is anyone having a problem with clip feed, bolt feels like it hits the clip sometimes instead of picking up the round, my father just bought the same rifle, brand new and does the same thing, you have to press the clip up with some pressure, while ejecting and reloading the next round, any help  Thanks Dennis

I only had feeding problems with the hollow point 20 grain bullets, and they didn't group to well anyway.  I bought a brick of the vmaxes and have been shooting them.
