Whatever Dude. Several have mentioned Remington. Only you oppose them. My suggestion to the guy, based on nearly a half a century of hunting in 13 states, 2 canadian provinces, 5 trips to Africa, for 68 different species of game and after 25+ years of active duty service is sound. Feel free to disagree but your opinion is no more valid than mine on the subject.
If you don't like Remingtons, fine. But don't try to tell someone they are a lousy choice. Millions of shooters and hunters (such as myself) will disagree with you. This will be my last post on this thread. You simply are not worth engaging any longer.
