High priced crap, such as Realtree injection molded handles and the aformentioned cost-cuts.
Shoddy workmanship and lack of attention to detail, such as barrels making uneven contact in the stock. It sometimes seems as if nobody even looked at a rifle before it left the factory.
Everything else is personal preference. There are still a lot of good options out there.
