    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt I just spoke with Remington, they are going to mail me a check for a refund. Woohoo, it will soon be over! Hopefully it will cover the return shipping I had to pay as well.

    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt Well I called Remington today so I could get the repair # so that I would have all info possible before I tried to reach a "higher up". They said they have the rifle on the bench now. Not sure what happened to the 6-8 week wait I was...

    Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt

    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt I just do not understand the logic that a massive amount of money must be spent to recieve an "as advertised" product. Does this only apply to guns? If you were to trade for a brand new vehicle and it blows the engine a few miles from the...

    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt Seeing and experienceing problems are 2 different things. I can watch and read about people having issues all day without getting worked up. But personally dropping several hundred dollars on anything and being told I have to patiently...

    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt I just called Remington and the rifle has been logged into their system. I was informed it would be 6-8 weeks before they can get it on the bench to see what is wrong with it. I then asked for a refund and was told it will be the same...

    Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt

    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt The gun finally settled in to dime sized groups at 100 yards. But in a hunting situation there was no way to work the bolt in a reasonbly stealthy manner. It required alot of leverage. I understand that the more of something a company...

    Re: Not a good 1st post...but I need to vent. Remingt I fired about 30 rounds through the gun. I could have lived with a slightly tight headspace. But this thing was "machining" .005" from the rim of the brass. A follow up shot would be impossible with the way I had to pry on the bolt to get...
