Look at the mess Remington made of the once great Marlin lever actions.........new out of the box couldn't be loaded or cycle properly.Rem 700's with incorrectly marked calibers and crooked chambers cut.Best one is a 22-250 with no rifling!

Remington has screwed up more really useful calibers with chicken [bleep] marketing than any other firearms company.
.280, .260, 6.8 SPC...are the main ones I know of.
Why wouldn't their service arm be as inept as their marketing brain trust and assembly lines?

Same company that's been shipping out bad extractors for what now 10yrs or better? Yes sir I've pretty well lost all faith in them as bad as I hate to admit that.

I had to laugh about the rivetless extractor. About a year ago I was in my gunsmith's shop when he was on the phone with Remington trying to order a rivetless extractor. To make a long story short, Remington kept telling my gunsmith for five minutes that they never made a rivetless extractor and finally hung up on him. In last 3 years I've had multiple negative experiences with Remington. So, yes they are staffed with idiots.
