Good question and it will be a matter of opinion. I have had quite a few of both brands. Both have strong actions so I would say they atre about equal in that area. Remington has a better trigger because its adjustable and with a little practice I am now able to adjust them to be a very good trigger. Accuracy wise They are both pretty darn good but in the ones I have owned, Remington has the edge because I have had a couple Rugers that would not shoot no matter what. Never Had a Remington that had to go because it would not group well enough to get the job done. Most Of my Rugers have been fine but there were a few that were not. Since you asked about these two brands only I would have to vote Remington. My biggest single complaint with Ruger is their trigger.
