[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1233045, member: 30902"] The tang safety M77's were largely crap. The M77MKII and modern M77 Hawkeye's are a whole nuther world. Winchester had some issues initially following the move from New Haven but the modern FN/Winchester offerings are excellent, at least those I've handled and those friends have bought. Personally out of all of them I prefer the Winchester Mod 70 pre and post 64 controlled round feed actions to everything else on the market but the Hawkeye's are a close second. Remington has had so many QC issues over the last couple of decades I'm a bit gunshy of them in spite of owning quite a few. The best thing about the Remington's is that there is so much aftermarket support. If the Remington's didn't have so many problems there wouldn't be so much aftermarket support. For some reason Remington just can't seem to figure out how to make/assemble bolts or come up with a good factory extractor or trigger. [/QUOTE]
