Default RE: Remmington 710

ORIGINAL: Retaks

I have the same gun. It shoots ok with Remington Core Lokt. It will shoot around 2-2.5in at 100 with them. I shoot Winchester Ballistic Silvertips and am getting 3/4-1in groups at 100. Im going to be getting rid of this gun very soon. Last year during bear season we had a close incounter and when reloading the 4th round the bolt ripped out of the gun through the bolt stop. Other then that its been a good gun. I beat the crap out of it and it never gave me a prob until then. Ive had it since they came out new a few years ago. Its slid down a few mountains , went swimming to retrieve animals, fell out of trucks and never gave me a problem.
If I had a bear coming down at me I might have ripped the bolt out of it too trying to chamber another round
