Guys my Savage 24v has a wore out or loose hinge pin that is allowing increased headspace. I have a slight side to side movement after lock up. My new 30-30 brass is showing the dreaded ring at the bottom of the case body at the head. Can a gunsmith replace the pin to a larger dia and tighten up the lock-up?
