RE: most overated!!!!
I would go with weatherby. I like my browning. I like remington too. But all yall dogging on the brownings can't say nothing just look at that new remington model 710. I wouldn't give you 50 dollars for that piece of plastic.

Hey Bubba, I agree. Some of these "BUY AMERICAN" Remington guys here, don't realize that Remington subs a lot of their parts south of the border and then stamps Made in the USA. I can't recall the Mexicans making anything better than the Japs. Mexican cars?, Mexican electronics? Mexican machine tools? Mexican tacos, ok there is one! I have owned both brands, and there isn't one Remington that I would take over the same, in Browning. Just look at the autoloaders. Remington's should be called the autojammer. Have you ever slid the action of a BPS and compared it to the 870? Or cycled an A-5 and compared it to an 1100? (a bit closer) Then a last look at the resale value!!!!

Hey Chrashman,
I purchased a Savage 110 22-250 and I really like it. It is real good til about 220 and it has a good feel to it. The only complaint I have is the trigger. It is a pretty hard pull and I am used to the trigger on the Remington 30-06. I like the feel of the light trigger pull. The Savage just takes some getting used to. Good luck!
