I had a good experience with Savage Arms
I managed to damage the bolt handle on my model 25 in 22 Hornet: A case got stuck and during extraction I created the damage. I sent them the rifle for repair last June. Today I received the repaired rifle/bolt and there was no charge.
To be honest I was not sure how well Savage Arms would handle my repair problem, but they certainly came through and were professional.
