I emailed rem. and have not gotten word back. Will call sometime this week. Oh and to the guy that said that nothing is wrong with the rem. 770 and it is solid look at all of your bolt guns and tell me how many bolt handles are press fitted on with glue to hold it there. NONE of mine do except this one. I did not buy this rifle it was given to me by my dad when he upgrade to a winchester after he realized it was a piece of junk.
