Im not trying to beat a flogged horse here but I'm looking to put a twist on it. If one was going north to hunt, adirondacks, maine, canada or alaska, which is a more reliable, solid tool,....remington 700 or winchester 70. Now, some things must be assumed, caliber is not in question; weather is typically bad, snow, sleet, ice, rain and fog, etc.; figure on being in the field for a week minimum. I'm also conceding that out of the box the rem 700 may be more accurate and the winnie may feed/extract/eject better? I am a remington man but I am interested in a winchester if this could be a more reliable option. I'm more interested in comparing 'tools' than doing a 'ford v. chevy' type comparison.
