I had an NH classic that had a butchered feed ramp from the factory and jammed every round on the left side of the magazine. I bought this gun (and was screwed by) another member here, and since it was a second hand problem I had my doubts as to what the Winchester Service Center would do on my behalf and was certain a black coud was casting a shadow in my general location. Much less to say they had replaced this rifle, with no questions asked, with a "made in in USA; assembled in Portugal" rifle. A real credit to their customer service and my respect to go with it.
For what it is worth, this specific rifle, has the best machine work I've ever seen from a factory gun including Sakos, Kimbers, any Winny or Remmy I've ever owned. The tolerances are extremely tight and the bolt rides on owl schitt. My only guess is they must have retooled before the one I received but it is impressive work, even if by a CNC machine, none the less!!!
