I do not own a 710.I have however fired a friends 710 that he bought to save money.It shot reasonably well averaging 1-1/2" at 100 yards.However the action was so rough that it might as well be a single shot because it was so hard to cycle at any speed.The trigger was also the worst that I have used on a bolt action and felt like a new remington semi auto or pump action trigger.Yes he did save a little money but for an extra $100 he could have had a howa which would have been well worth the extra money.
