Remington Model 770
« on: February 07, 2010, 02:41:49 PM »
Anyone have experience with one of these???  :dunno:

BTW its a 7mm rem mag if that makes a difference.

thanks.

remington's budget rifle. i think if you look around you will find they can be problem children.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

A buddy of mine I got into hunting got one. The bolt is not smooth and the clip feeds like garbage.

He has taken a deer with it so like the1rod said it will get the job done.

k maybe i ought to think twice. sounded like a great investment cause the price tag but i think i need to look deeper into it.

DOesnt sound like many people have anything good or positive to say about it

You'd be better of with a savage or one of the new mossberg bolt actions I think.
