judman.different strokes for different folks.as stated nothing wrong with remingtons.but customs offer more when all considered.40 years ago i shot factory remingtons and winchester model 70 pre 64.rifles..i know a older retired riflesmith named richard franklin.he was in virginia.he tested rem actions with the lugs machined many thousands off on one side from the other...lug engaged on one side only.other side off as much as 16teenth of a inch.no contact.you see they shot 1.5" groups at a 100 yds.long story short barrels are more important for accuracy than a action..that being said if you have a rem blueprinted and trued correctly they will shoot with any custom..its all about what people want or need..godspeed and great hunting to all the true americans on our forums. .
