I don't even know why I am replying to this but this person is just bashing for the sake of bashing.
Not bashing anything. You said to get close to a Remington trigger with a Ruger the trigger has to be replaced by an aftermarket, and I know for a fact it's not true because I work on both Remingtons and Rugers. The Ruger just takes longer and quite a bit more SKILL.

Sort of like a freaking Walmart post right? I have owned rugers since the 70's in fact it was my third high power rifle and have bought them steadily since. They are great rifles only suffering since inception with piss poor triggers which in most cases a workaround can be done on them. Then I get a guy here who has owned them maybe 2 years or so and he is the self acclaimed expert on them owning maybe 2-3 of them and downgrades anyones opinion on them. Another user to block that's all he is.

i just purchased a new rem 700 cdl. i did a lot of looking around before the purchase. i am one to be careful with my money and want to find what i feel is best for me. i looked at lots of rifles, and i really liked the feel of the remington. it is a very nice looking rifle. and fit me really well. quite a few rifles, by several makers had sticky and sloppy bolts. then there were guns from the same makers that felt crisp and smooth. the remington i purchased is smooth and there is very little wobble from the bolt. my favorite rifle by far. my father owns lots of winchesters, ithicas, and savages. he loves them all. i feel it is about personal preference. some people like the feel of one rifle, then others like the feel of another. but every manufacture has to cut cost smoewhere nowadays.
