Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Do Remington actions have "softer" metal than other makes?

Hey Dick, don't be a dick!!

we like them because they are the 350 chevy of the gun world..lots of cool stuff available...

Dick...you bring everything on yourself.

Hey Brick, [bleep] him, he has asked for everything he gets.


This dicky dick is an incredibly SLOW learner!

Never expected that from you JStuart. It is a really simple story. I responded in a thread and related asking Kenny Jarrett about a rifle build. I had asked him why he used the Remington action instead of a Sako, mostly because at the time Sako was my preferred action. Kenny Jarrett told me the metal on the Sako wasn't as easy to work with because it was too hard, and the Remington metal was softer and easier to work with. At the time he was way ahead of other gun builders in providing accurate hunting rifles,(I think he promised 1/2 moa). I value his information and consider it a gift if he shares his knowledge. Bricktop is just an idiot. Add to that I also stated I think the Remington action needs more work than some other makes. As is typical, bricktop felt the need to make it all about bricktop. He takes issue with remington quality not being what it could be, providing no reason why, and all the while hawking a recalled remington product a few threads down. You could call that ironic if it wasn't just so plain stupid. If bricktop wants to think all metal is processed the same and all manufacturers world over produce the exact same metal, hes welcome to it. It would be stupid to think so, but I don't care if stupid people are in a rush to identify themselves. I doubt he gets much attention anywhere but the internet where he can inject himself at will. What I took issue with was his posting of gay homo porn pictures of a boy of questionable age. I find that pretty disgusting. So if thats the hole I'm digging, hand me a shovel. He's a sick bastard, not the company I care to keep. No surprise steelhead likes that crap, but surprised you would would step up for it.

That was an epic whine, dick.

He's rather skilled at that.

Post "I don't care if stupid people are in a rush to identify themselves " and rancho appears immediately upon cue. Epic concede.


Notice bricktop, a guy that takes issue with almost anything and everything, has in 3 days never denied he has a collect of boy porn pictures he posts.

You're a do-nothing dooshbag, dicky.. keep right on owning it.

Your ass got OWNED, Dicky. Get past it.

Know it all gun expert in one thread, all-time elk hunter in the next, and then the 11 inch pink abalone in another. All this from the guy that grew up in LA? Right. You and bricktop could be brothers.

The only thing that got owned is you being the king of homo boy pictures.

Jesus. Enough, kids! The adults are trying to talk.

Need a tissue, dicky?

I want to find a pharmacist who'll make a custom compound for you, Dicky: Ritalin and Midol. You need to focus and quit crying like a bitch.

It is not about the posts that brick is slapping you for...they are inconsequential and besides the point.

It is about your reply posts, instead of sticking with the whine theme you should have just posted the original disputed post and statement, then left it at that.

You are inviting attack.

Why don't you two punks take this private. Enough already.

Don't know about softer, but had one particular 350RM Ruger on a Short Magnum stainless action that had a metal hardness off the chart. You could cut diamonds with that receiver metal. After that experience, all the others, including the Rems, were like working with warm butter.
