BB - I am glad you got a good shooter.I hope Rem gets their s**t together in the quality realm. Take a look at some of the crap they have come out with lately. Look at the 710 (theEdsel ofrifles). I am talking about Remington standard production guns. The problems form customers from minor to semi-major like fit/finish, feed problems, bedding issues, etc. I like the 700 action. And if I were to get a custom rifle built, that is the action I would use. I understand that the new 22 semi they came out with is nice and shoot good. I think its the 593 or 597??
