[QUOTE="PBramble, post: 3832374, member: 5778"] Snipershide.com, Longrangehunting.com, personal experience of collecting and having rifles built over the last 35 years. There are more desirable years of actions to have. Basically to G prefixes then RR on. I may have my years wrong on Vista's acquisition of Remington, but basically they let a lot of stuff slide out the door that wasn't top notch as had been expected from Remington. Case in point the 300BO AAC model I bought that had an incorrectly marked barrel and the wrong twist rate. Remington wouldn't even consider fixing it. I contacted one of the AAC guys through SH and they replaced it with the correct barrel free of charge and paid for shipping too. Side note, Remington just started manufacturing actions again, but they can be bought for cheaper through companies like LRI, IF they have any left. If Josh bought the one I directed him to, he just got a stainless model for 550. Like I said, I may have the acquisition dates off, but the quality speaks for itself. Roughly mid 90s cutoff to correct myself on the desirable ones.
