Some weirdness might still be going on. I bought a cheapie Rem 783 to mess around with in .223. It is fairly smooth and has a decent trigger. I looked at a 700 ADL? Blind magazine version and the action was rough and seemed to have a bad case of bolt bind or something, I couldn't believe it.
I would say go to your LGS and try one out if it is in stock and then buy the one you get have your hands on if you like it.
