Well said. I've had experience with older Remingtons, and they have all been fine guns that anyone would be proud to put their name on. However, every experience I've had with a Remington made in the last 3-4 years has been negative. That's what turned me off from them. I'd not hesitate to buy a Remington that was made 20 years ago.
While Savage, every experience I've had with new or old has been great.
Same with a few other companies.
