also i love the gun pro's all saying they wouldnt own a 770...its just a copy of the old 710...and ill bet half your pro's never fired a 770..it is exactly what they built it to be a easy on the wallet hunting rifle,,,i dont believe the bolt just popede off,,,someone did something like shooting hot hand loads in it to do that,,like pound a few swelled brass out with a hammer..and if thats the case you deserve it...stop trashing remington like you said you got it fror free...what you want a gold plated one...stop squeezeing that nickle and send it to remington....omg get real
