My major gripe with Remington is that my last 3 new ones, a VLS and 2 BDLs have required glass bedding, barrel floating and trigger work, a total of $250., to make them shoot as well as the Remingtons I was buying in the 80s. They shoot well now, but only after that expense. I take no comfort in the fact that other rifles require this as well. I only give a damn about the ones I'm buying. Savage seems to be stealing the market, and all I can say is, more power to them. I'm back to buying Savage after many years of neglecting them. I at least get the feeling they are an honest buy. Maybe Remington should hire more gunsmiths and fewer lawyers. Most of the rifles in my gun cabinet are Remington, 7 of them, but the company's not showing me much in recent years. Sorry, but that's the way I feel. Best wishes.
