RE: I'm pissed, brand new remington 700, and it sucks! (pics included)
Wipe the spots marked up by you fingernail with an oily rag, and I think you'll be supprised. As for the brass, i've found PF rifles to be rather 'rough' on brass, but its nothing that doesent clean up with a tumble.
I hate to be contrary, but I dont see anything there to get too worked up about. Put some glass on it, and shoot it. Then report back. I think you'll take ona different perspective once you do.
