Just found this thread and ordered a new m98 magazine spring for my new New Haven 416 RM. Thank you for the heads up @Mark A Ouellette

I just bought 2 of them this winter , a 375 and a 338Alaskan , both feed and function beautifully , good accuracy on the 375, haven't shot the 338 yet. Very nice rifle for the money.

Usually, no. Now & then, a few have their firing pins & magazine springs break. Or have inferior bedding.

But still, excellent value for the money and a trip to a competent gunsmith can make the rifles flawless.

Anyone who can't change his firing pin and magazine spring, or bed his rifle shouldn't have an 8th grade diploma. Okay, maybe that's a bit harsh, but it's not rocket science. Changing a tire is about as complicated. Just make sure to remove the firing pin spring clip in a closed uncluttered room where you can find it easily (= no shag carpeting). They have a tendency to seek the stratosphere during bolt disassembly.
