[QUOTE="Forrest Ebert, post: 608420, member: 11524"] OK first everyone here has a point or two and with that said here are some things that need to be said. The Remington 700 action is one of the most cloned actions out there so that has something to say about them doesn't it? Second with all the lawsuit happy consumers it's really a wonder any firearm mfg. is still in business! Third I don't know about the rest of you out there but I'm tired of seeing a NASCAR driver telling me what I should buy in a hunting rifle ! What can I go on TV and tell them what motors and gearing to use that part is a joke but it does have an effect on the product we see as it cost the mfg.'s $$ to have these guy's on there and most of them couldn't even tell what caliber a rifle is while holding it as they have no Idea where to look to see where it is stamped on them! Yes I'm a fan of Remington rifles I own many and a few Rugers and a Browning and a Berretta or two and yes the industry has gotten way too gimmicky but that is sales and anything built by humans are going to have their problems. I have just traded for a newer built Remy in 6.8 SPC so we shall see if the quality has gone down and Ill do a posting after I have done some testing to let everyone know about quality and accuracy etc. I hope I haven't put all of you too sleep with my post! Last is pricing they get that part from what we the buyer's are willing to spend so if we don't push back then the price just keeps climbing if we stopped buying maybe then the MFG's would wake up.
