[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1339644, member: 12995"] This is a 5R Milspec model... I have 2 of them (.308 Win & .300WM), and have zero issues with them. My .308 Win routinely shoots sub-1/4" groups at 100 yards with handloads. Now, I will say this, the factory X-Mark Pro triggers are garbage, and will need to be replaced with a Jewell or Timney as soon as you buy the rifle. That's the only thing that the 5R rifles should need. Also, properly re-torquing the action screws to 65 inch-pounds helps to guarantee that the action isn't torquing in the stock. I can say this with confidence... If you decide to give Remington one more shot to restore your faith in their products, this would be the rifle to do it with. [/QUOTE]
