RE: model 710
 

The model 710 does what I need it to. Nothin' fancy, but a deer isn't gonna tell the difference if its a $300 gun or $1,000. But I'll say this, if you can afford it, try to get a Rem model 700.

RE: model 710
 

I agree if you can afford it get the 700 if not take a look at the Savage. I personally wouldn't have a 710 and as far as throwing my rifle in the truck i do that with my 700's and don't think twice about. I don't abuse my guns but i didn't buy them to look pretty i bought them as a tool to hunt with so i don't mind if they get a little scratched and scuffed .
