Buy a used donor Remington and have it redone by a qualified gunsmith not a metal butcher. You'll have about 200 to 300 dollars more in it than a new one. It will shoot which the factory rifle may do but probably not without sinking a lot of hours into it. I haven't bought a new factory rifle in over twenty years. Its a waste of time.

Ask Redneck.
