If you came to this page because you just purchased a Remington or someone gave you one and you wanted to see what can be improved or is a problem: sorry, this article is not super positive. I think the Savage Axis and many of the other budget-priced bolt action rifle are pretty damn good for the price. This rifle is not. There are no high res images, there is a video that shows some issues with the rifle that are hard to describe in text, and all the headings are going to be different. It is not offered anymore in most shops in Canada or the US. Good riddance! These days, use of plastic and mass-manufactured parts for hunting rifle magazines is expected. In some uses, plastic is a better material. The Remington uses a poorly designed magazine. The metal they chose to use has little springiness to it and takes bends quickly. The metal mag body attaches to the plastic floorplate by way of 2 tiny ridges cut into the inside of the floorplate. So, the attachment method is pretty poor, and the metal tabs that make for that attachment bend. Using the disassembly method recommended in the manual on the magazine, and you may introduce a bend on the mag body tab.

Then again, if something does the job and takes the meat home without much expense, that is something to be smug about.

This number does not include those killed in war. You didn't makes custom bolt out of aluminum foil did you bud? All times are GMT The ammo will outcost that rifle in a couple range trips.

Here the box locks at the front by a single latch and at the rear by a lug in a cut-out. Bloomberg took a torch to the bolt before you purchased it. The Remington uses a poorly designed magazine. Accuracy is supposed to be good. It free falls away easily enough but must be inserted base-first so that the rear engagement locks up.
