They arent. This person is just parroting "some fudd once told me..." bullshit. Savages are budget friendly rifles with bolts that can be a little rough until they are well broken in, but they are reliably built and usually very accurate rifles

I can attest to the bolt. It was rough at first. Felt almost a little clunky. Sometime between 300-400 rounds it must have gotten smoother while I wasn’t paying any particular attention to it. And then another 100 later it’s smooth as can be.

Savages are used by bench rest shooters. CZ aren't.
