If you had to choose between these two only, which would you choose and why I ask? I'm trying to decide between the two myself. Both are stock rifles and in great condition. The Remington 700 Classic is blued and the X-Bolt is stainless. Thank you!
Everything he said is true, but I'd still choose the xbolt every time. I like mine more than my two Tikkas...the stainless part seals the deal...you can do much more with the 700 action if your planning on a re-build later on...both will handle anything you can hit with a hunting rifle..
