[QUOTE="Chas1, post: 367914, member: 15738"] Remy-love em or leave em has been debated nemorous times before on LRH and what's interesting is the posts all mirror each other in various categories: 1.) alot of folks that have had faulty rifles and are done with Remys. 2.) few but far too many who have had faulty rifles and keep buying them. 3.) most in 1 & 2 agree Remy Tech Support is unsatisfactory. 4.) a few that own 14gazzillion and everyone shot like a BR rig (I didn't include these folks in rating Remy's Tech Support as they never had any issues). I'm going to oversimplify this to keep it short but, Some companies call it the triangle. Quality, Time, Cost. Pick any two you want but you cant have all three otherwise you go out of business. They have decided to go with Cost and Time so you get inexpensive and readily available but quality suffers and trust me they have reams of paper on type of defects/number of units blah blah blah and it's an acceptable number to them so long as they move X number of units at Y price and keep cost associated with defects to Z amount or below. It's not that they need a wake up call...they don't...it's their business plan and it works. Bottom line and I say this with no sarcasism but you get what you pay for...it's a roll of the dice. Think about it, 6-700 bucks retail of which maybe they get 4-500 bucks of that...now what do you think your going to get? Heck you can't get a custom action for that, a custom barrel not much less than that, a custom stock not much less than that, smith's labor more than that. There's hope though...If you want to buy a remy then purchase one from those that have 14gazillion that all shoot accurately. Remy has a niche, a Marketplace they can satisfy and they do cause they sell them by the boatloads. IMHO the Marketplace majority they are tuned into is not in LR shooting.
