Remington=average. no real big strengths other than customization, which i don't understand why someone would buy a rifle just to customize it, when they could buy all the parts they need and build it from scratch.
Or like shato davis said already have the off the shelf gun in the cabinet and custom it when the need or moment hits. I have done that with a few 700's, I like the flexibility if you have an action sitting idle(cheaper to work of its frame then buy the parts.)
