    Just picked up a Rem 700 AAC-SD marked 7 twist barrel. Measured the twist myself and had my smith measure also; we each got 1 in 10. This is apparently a documented issue that I wasn’t aware of prior to purchasing, so I’m curious how Remington is addressing the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
     
    Same thing happened to a mate with his, he just had it sent back through the local gun shop and got a new one.

    Come to think of it though, I think they sent him back the wrong one after this as well, so he had to return it again. And he'd already returned the rifle once for a trigger issue...
