I have had both, personally I have to pick Remington. I do like the controlled round feed of the Winchester better than the push feed system of the Remington. However The Winchesters I have owned do not shoot quite as well as a Remington 700. The last Wichester I owned was a Model 70 Featherweight 30-06, beautifull rifle, just didnt posess the accuracy I beleived it should have. Just my personal experience, not trying to start another heated arguement.
