Thread: Remington model 710,

Hi to the wise is there any thing wrong with these guns ?
Ive got a model 700 and love it are these as good as the 700?
Thanks for your time.

Stay away from the 710, they are no where near as good as a 700.

Model 710. Budget piece of crap rifle. Didn't think they were still made?

Might come in handy as a replacement tomato stake when the 303 finally rusts away.

They are hunks of crap falconhell. The 'large' outdoors store I worked at in Canada stopped stocking the predecessor: model 770 (= bigger piece of shite) due to almost all of the coming back with issues. They do not even compare to the model 700's.

If you are wanting a budget rifle go and get a TC venture or Howa 1500, at least they fuction correctly and are normally very accurate. Or just get another Rem 700.

+1 for the Howa 1500. Picked mine up for $750 new from Reloaders.

Ok thanks for that what about the new sps? I want 1 in 30/06

If you like the rem 700 you own, get another one. If it fits you well, and you enjoy shooting it I don't see why not. Its still the one of the most popular rifle models in the world. And if you want to upgrade it, there are a rediculous amount of aftermarket parts and accessories for the Rem 700.
