It seems like alot of people dont think too fondly of the 710 and to really be honest I cant see why ive heard they have a sloppy trigger and a crappy bolt but I think that mine has a great trigger its nice and crisp ,and ive never had any problems with the bolt but this is also my first and only large caliber rifle so i cant really compare it to anything but i love mine for the price i paid i was thinkin bout gettin another one in a 30-06 or 300 and just wonderin how many have actually bought the rifle and shot it or just heard somethin bad from someone and shyed away from it?
