RE: WHAT IS HAPPENING TO REMINGTON?
When I say ruger's are cheaply made, I mean the new deerfields, mini 14's, and those junk lever 44's they make. Its plain and simple, those ruger rifles are JUNK. The older versions are the better ones. As far as a plain jane ruger 77 goes, they are built like tanks with the best part of them being the mauser action.
Savage needs to do away with all the square fore-ended stocks and they need to shorten them by about 1/2" to 3/4".
