if i had 2000.00 i would go with a remington,,,they shoot straight and to say they wear out and dont shoot is foolish at best,,the only remington that ever had that trouble was the old ,,and i mean 1960 742,,and remington would fix it free..ive worked on a ton of guns over the years and the only thing i dont like to do is tear the auto apart to clean for guys.by this i mean trigger group..keep in mind you will sometimes be hunting cold wet weather..im more happy with a bolt gun in bad weather...besides if you need a whole clip of ammo you shouldnt be out there!!!!!!!!
