OEH - I have as many Remingtons through my shop in one year than you haveowned in your entire life. They do vary a little in quality and there is some truth to the production demands of having big contracts with Wal-Mart and other big retail giants.

But Remingtons totally dominate every aspect of competitive shooting - at least where bolt action rifles are involved. And there are more aftermarket accessories available for Remingtons than just about every other bolt action combined. Quite a few are available only for Remingtons. Our military chose the Remington 700 as their official sniper rifle. Law enforcement sniper rifles are totally dominated by Remington. All this is no coincidence.
