[QUOTE="petenz, post: 240956, member: 10202"] Remington 1: SPS Stainless, .270 win. Wouldn't shoot consistently with the factory stock, at all, bedded it into a laminate and it shot around 1/2" for 3 shots with accubonds and ballistic tips. The inside of the action was galled and the bolt had machining marks on it. Remington 2, Model 7 CDL .223. Had a stress fracture in the bolt face out of the box, sent the bolt back to get it replaced, they said 4-6 weeks, it's now been nearly 6 months and nothing. I'm also having difficulty getting a refund out of the store that sold me a broken rifle:mad:. Remington 3, SPS .223. The front action screw intruded into the lug recess and the inside of the barrel has tooling marks you could park a van in, but it shoots very well, 1/2" every time for 3 shots and around .75" for 5 with 55gr Vmax. Not too worried about the rough barrel because it's getting an action overhaul and a 1:8 barrel soon. Have a new stock arriving this week to replace the tupperware one. My experience is that they shoot well, usually, but they seem to be made by monkeys, quality control apparently doesn't exist. [/QUOTE]
