[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1297285, member: 12995"] Man, you'll read so much bullish!t online, that you'll start believing a Rem 700 was the worst rifle in the world, that was produced by the devil, designed by hillary clinton, and emits toxic gases that make people commit adultery. That's sarcasm, of course...But from the way people talk about them, you would think it's a pile of junk. People love to talk crap about the 700 for some reason. My guess is out of jealousy that their favorite brands all copied the same basic design of the 700, and that Remington beat their brand to it. :D There's a reason the 700 has remained the same since 1962...You just don't mess with perfection. You can improve on it (blueprinting, etc...), but you don't completely change it. Prime example, most custom actions out there are built on a 700 footprint, and accept 700 magazine assembles and use 700 stocks and triggers. :cool: The 700 is a great rifle, but like anything mass-produced, there is bound to be a few lemons slip through. It happens with EVERY brand. It's happened to me twice...One high-dollar Weatherby, and one 700. You play the game enough, it's bound to happen...Unless you have extremely good luck. [/QUOTE]
