I had a Remington 783 that shot very well but the argument here was that it wasn't going to hold up like a 700. I know a guy who shot so much has worn out a 700 trigger.

So I guess the question is if the rifle is light and has the correct twist what's the difference?

Obviously an axis isn't the same as a 700 but what about the American or the x7 or the Patriot or?
