Unfortunately I own a 710. Shoots real straight, but internally it is junk. I live in Illinois, where we have to slug hunt for deer. I was invited to go on a deer hunt in Missouri and needed a decent rifle scope combo. I looked at the name Savage and couldn't do it.

Then you see the name Remington. Great name. I was stupidly biased. The 710 that I own still shoots straight, nice groups at 100 yards but the action is already showing sighns of wear and only after 100 or so rounds through it. I will not take this gun on any hunts as my primary piece. It will be used as a back-up only. $289 poorly spent. I should have bitten the bullet and spent just a little more on a 700 and put a scope on it. In fact I would have been just fine with open sights on that trip. Killed a doe at 75 yards. I coulda done that with open sights.
