Kinda off topic but just passing along to y"all what I think is a pretty good deal. If you"re looking for an inexpensive hunting rifle consider this: Wally World here is selling Remington 710 rifles including Burris scope and rings for $250 (any caliber .243-.300 Win Mag). Cheaper than the lever action 30-30s I was looking at. As such I got one for each teenage son in .270 for an upcoming Youth Hunt and 2007 Ky hunting. Fit & finish is not great but for the $$ it is pretty decent. Out of the box accuracy seems to be pretty good. Will ring them out at the range this wx to get a real assessment. Trigger is HEAVY at about 9# (lawyers - need I say more). Here"s how I decided:
It"s good-
If you need only a scope
If you like a detachable mag
If you want a durable finish all over (teenagers)
If the stock feels ok
If the colors are ok for you It"s not for you-
If you are looking for benchrest accuracy
If you want to load it from the top
If you want iron/open sites
If the color doesn"t agree with you & you don"t want to paint it
If you like the shape & feel of a competitively priced gun much better For me it would be a good rifle to throw under the seat in the truck or in tractor scabbard while doing winter chores/field work and available when a shot presents itself. PS - this is my first Remington all others are home built or Browing. FWIW

Safe trailering practices and inspections will ensure that the event is a fun one. A good habit to develop when using a trailer is to give that �quick look over� before taking it on a trip. Before hooking up to it check the tongue for proper operation. The latche
