[Pittsburghunter]

I saw one in a Walmart today? What are they like anyone ever do a test on these rifles?

My 500 is older than dirt owned it for 2/3 of my life and it has performed great. Are their rifles as good as their shotguns?

Yeah I saw one of these in WalMart down here for 249.95. Bolt action in 30-06. I guess if I was buying a low price rifle I would go with the Savage with the Accu-trigger for $100 more.

[oldelkhunter]

Nah I would go with the Rem 710

here is some earlier info posted when my nephew was looking at the 100atr

I was at Wally World at lunch and the Rem. 710 combo was 289.99. Now, that's cheap! If I was going to buy a plastic rifle I might buy one of those Sako wannabes...what's that plastic gun... oh, yeah, TIKKA.

What ever you do don't get a mossberg centrfire rifle. At walmart
is it black and it is a bolt action and it is $267. If it is don't get it.

[GRIZZLYMAN]

Now I'm curious. Why? Have you used one of these? I'm not going to buy one,but I'm curious.

[Little Bow Man 1]

I'm not saying mossberg is bad but don't get that one. First I was
going to buy one and my dad said no because it is a piece of junk.
If you get a rifle get one for your money. Put it this way my dad said

"To put it bluntly Mossberg 100 is crap.A 12 year old could machine a better rifle. The action is incredibly rough,finish is poor,fit is poor. I wouldn't waste my money.I hvae said before I would rather have a Remington model 710 than this rifle.
For about a hundred dollars more you could get the Remington 700($379)
Howa 1500/Weatherby vanguard($388),Winchester model 70, Charles Daly mauser($349
Savage 110. Any of these will serve you better than that mossberg rifle.
Mossbrg makes a heak of a shotgun, but stay away from the rifle" That was
from bigbulls.
