I thought we were supposed to be boycotting Remington?


Boycott or not the 770 is not a quality firearm and they should be embarrassed they put it on the market. Remington built a strong reputation over the decades and with moves such as this the reputation has already taken a hit.

The 770 is a POS - horrible shot groups too. Just ask to see one at Academy. Cycle the bolt a few times, and you'll see for yourself. I've shot at least 5 of them in different calibers, and they all have crappy, hard to operate bolts. The bolt locked up on 3 of them after firing a shot. I had to bang on it just to get the spent case out.

The Ruger American is a MUCH better product.
