I wasn't planning on getting a Rem 700 at Wal Mart, but I got dragged there today for other things so I naturally drifted to the sporting goods. I couldn't find anything on a Remington scope, but I thought I saw the R on it (but I had to look through the glass case at an angle). Any ideas if this was a current model?
As far as it not being the same product, how is that possible? Unless Remington sends "factory scratch & dent" or seconds to Wal Mart, I don't see how this could be. No doubt I like the service and knowledge of a BassPro Shop or Gander Mountain, but for less money at Wal Mart does it really make a difference?
