Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Remington Quality Control or lack there of...

I'll stick with my $350.00 rifles that shoot 1/2 MOA right out of the box with factory ammo. Piss away money on foreign made junk (yes FN is foreign)if you like.

Show me the mythical masking tape 1/2" groups you routinely get. A well travelled fellow that buys what 4-5 Remington 700's a month must have a mountain of well shot up targets to show us.

I have a factory 700 that'll shoot a half inch 3 shot group at 100 yards...... And I've got two others that wont And I hunt the pizz out of all of em

Had the same situation one would be a legit sometimes under an 1" gun and the rest had to be restocked in glass and played with to get close to that. We must be doing something wrong since a particular Florida gunowner has gotten 1/2 from each and every remington he has owned. He must be special

As in "Special Ed..."

Hell all of mine kill game. Im happy.

Game....?

You mean we are actually supposed to go hunting ..?

Eeeeewwwwwwww!

Not all of us poobah..... some commandos have to man the armchairs....

dats where I come in.....

The armchair is a great place for old dudes....

Dat was mean....borderline elderly abuse.....

Ingwe ain't old.................................just slow

Hell the overweight, the colored and the mentally challenged have already got it today..... why not the geritoliatric?

After owning in excess of 30 Mausers, I have yet to have a bolt handle break off, an extractor rip out or any metallic or scope mounting screw holes needing to be rebuilt.

Heck the Marlin XL/XS is a less expensive, more accurate and overall better rifle than any non custom shop 700.

My "new to me" Browning Safari pre salt FN actioned 30-06 arrived at the gunshop today. Cost no more than a 700 and I'll post lots of pics so even Swampy can see what a quality rifle is. (and it is APPRECIATING)

Interesting to note that EVERY Holland & Holland bolt action rifle I viewed recently in their NYC Gun Room, was built on a Mauser action. These rifles go out among animals that fight back. Does anyone really think H&H could not buy 700 actions were they so great ?

Does anyone really believe Swampy has ever shot anything more threatening than a Whitetail ?

Larry....FOAD

While antique designs are novel they simply aren't accurate enough to be interesting.

He might have shot a cottontail maybe and the infamous azz shot 8 year old Dink.

What happened to the collection to send Swampy on an African Lion trip with his 30-06 700 and factory reduced recoil loads ?

Woah... did you just defend Swampy?

Hi Swampman
What foreign mean in the XXI century era? If i recall well some of the best firearms and most loved by your soldiers fighting for you are made by foreign companys: Minimi, Mag, Scar, HKmp5, AT4, Berettas and others...

But they are made in the US by US workers as the new model 70 is. Don't you know that Remington is buying lots of things outside your borders even in that poor old Europe and even in Turkey, Russia or Serbia.
Swampy you can be american, european or whatever, today the only winners are the bankers and financial funds that [bleep] us and sell us more ssshittt to makes more money!

If i remember well i saw you drive Ford Focus: most of parts come from Europe or Mexico or Canada. Do you handload Swampy, yes for sure: so look at most of your rifle powders: they come from Canada, Australia, Europe except the Olin brand. Foreign does'nt mean a clue in our world when it comes to buying something man made!
Have a good weekend dear Swampman, ride your Harley ( the renew of that company come with a motor designed by foreigners)shoot Remington and have a beer for the foreigners...
