RE: Remington model 710
Junk... I work for a gun shop and see alot of them come back broken just before season.. Can't really do any trigger work.. If you like a gun that has a poor trigger, poor bolt, and "ok" accuracy out to 50-150 yds then good.. The scope is yellow and dingy looking..
Can't you shoot a deer and even a monster with it.. YES... As long as everything works and works in your favor.. IF you have a shot at a "monster" at first light and you pull up the scope you'll be lucky if you see anything at all.
So if you find a load the gun likes, and the gun is working then sure you can kill a deer with it.. No resale value but it's a tool to use anyway, right?
If you like it buy it, but there are better choices.. Even in that price range.. For around 300 you can get the Mossberg 100 ATR which is even better quality...
But then again I kill most of my deer with a slug gun so what would I know?
