AMEN! $1200.00 for an old wood-stocked Savage? And I seriously doubt a burst barrel would rough-up a guys face like that. Shooting off of bags, he probably didn't even have his hand up there.

I bet he'll never forget to remove the BORE SIGHTER out of the barrel again

Default where the bolt????

looks like the bolt blew out of the gun also, look at the first pic, don't see the bolt, I doubt anyone touched it after the failure, could be the reason for the wounds to his face.. ouch
