I got one in .308 a couple of years ago that shoots great, have killed hogs with it. They are not known for being the longest lived guns Remington made, but one that has had moderate use should last you a long time if used for hunting. I found the "gas block" (not the right term, don't remember the correct term but it is similar part to the AR) to be pretty fouled. It has a small spring and ball that control gas to the bolt. Easy to take off and clean.
