Took two deer with my 710 combo, in 270. I saw mine at Walmart and paid $240 out the door. I agree I have some concerns about durability but I didn'thave the funds to get a better one at the time but still drops em like I had upgrade.

i don't like them don't own one put have handled them. i have several 700, 721, 725 all are good rifles. the 710 has a sticky action to me. it is not smooth. the new 770 looks like a better version of the 710. i seen a 770 at Gander Moutain. the action was smother.

The 710 was the first rifle I owned, and I love it! It is dead accurate out of the box, and with an improved scope Leupold VX-III) I've made a 450yard shot on target, and I am NO Marksman.

That being said,I wouldn't buy it again. Unfortunately, there aren't many upgrades for it, the barrel and action are all in one piece, so if one part goes it all goes, and the magazine holder is a plastic piece that may break causing the whole stock assembly to be unusable.

If you can afford it, get any other Remington700 model.

I never shot one but I looked at one beforeI bought my 700 BDL. It just wasn't the gun for me. I didn't like anything about the way it felt in my hands or when I shouldered it and personally I didn't like the over all looks of it. It may be a all around good gun though.

i was looking at this gun to and ppl on here were saying some ppl love it some hate it and they were junk so i went with a savage 30-06 and then put a nikon prostaff on it and i love the gun havnt ha da problom cost about the same as tyhe 710 also maybe a little bit more and the scope that comes on the savage isnt a bad scope i just wanted a better scope in low light condition. my complete set up with the savege and the nikon prostaff and i also got a but pad for the savage cause i just love to shoot without my shoulder killing was aorund 600 but the gun itself was 4 good luck

Right now Di cks has an exclusive Remington only made for di cks stores. Its called the Remington 700 SP and it sells for 469. If you can afford it call your local di cks and see if they have it in your caliber of choice. Heres a pic of mine. Just put the scope on it last night.

I don't think the 700 SP was made exclusively for D1cks. You can get them from various online gun stores like ImpactGuns.com, etc.

^^^ that's not the same gun. They only made it in wood stock. The gun in the link that you posted was totally diffrent.

I have a 710 in 30.06 and I love it. Didn't cost much and shot perfectly out of the box. I have nothing negative to say about the gun whatsoever.
