I'm partial to the 77 RS as well, in part because I always like having iron sights as an option, and so few rifles come with them these days. I've seen the Remington Classics and like the looks of them a bit less (maybe because the rear sight seems kind of rinky-dink). But of course, accuracy is everything. So now I'll have to decide if I'm willing to take a chance on the Ruger barrel, or go for the CDL. Dang, I may have to buy more than one gun.
Also, I'm not a reloader, or at least not yet. I think I've seen factory ammo from Remington and Federal. Are there others, and is one brand or bullet weight a clear winner? I assume the most important point is to pick a load and stick with it. Thanks for all the advice. TT
