Personally,I WOULD NOT get one,I like guns that are tried and true,Remingtons,Savages,Winchesters,Brownings,and the like,but thats me. I saw a new remington 700 called a 700SPS. Good gun,same thing as a 700 except the barrel is matte blued carbon steel,and It has a synthetic stock. A savage is a good choice too.Look at the package series or a 10FCM Sierra or 11F.
