Default Remington 710?

Anyone had any experience with this rifle? Is it accurate? Reliable? How does it compare to the Mossberg ATR?

In all honesty you would have topay "me" to buy one! I believe there are MUCH better rifles for the money. I really think the 710sare a piece of junk!

Do yourself a favor and for about the same money, buy a Stevens 200, Remington ADL or a Marlin 336 lever action. Believe me you'll have a MUCH better rifle. In my opinion, Remington should be ashamed to have ever built the 710.[:'(]

Don't do it. You'll get just as much pleasure from sticking your toe in a fan. And that don't cost a nickel.

Read the previous threads on the 710. I learned the hard way. Save your money and buy a real rifle.
