Any model 700 is a good gun, but buyer beware, remington is going to be stopping production on the the 700 line and parts will no longer be available. Im not sure when this is going to happen but thats what I read in a magazine the other day.
I would be VERY curious to know where you read this information? The model 700 has been Remington's flagship gun since the early 60's and maybe the most popular bolt-gun ever made, so I find it hard to believe that they would be completely scrapping it.
