Has Remington lost their touch?

[MCMXI]

If you expect me to believe that their QC is up to par you can sell that hog somewhere else,

I made it clear that I won't be buying any more 700s but unlike you I'm objective about it. You're so bitter about Cerberus that you can't see straight.

Yeah they screwed up our QC too! Good thing Fiat/UAW bought them out or the Chrysler name would be gone forever.
I try to remain as objective as possable, but when you see piss poor product over and over again you cannot help but notice. I now warn all my friends to stay away from all Remington firearms, though I still do use some of their reloading products (core-lokts still shoot good and kill deer like they always have, and my pet load for my 06 uses Remington primers)

yes, QC has been an issue AT TIMES.

I purchased a 700,XCR Tactical in .308 two years ago. The rear pair of scope base holes were drilled off center. I had to use a set of Burris rings (leupold windage adjustable style). With the ring inserts. This barely allowed me to get my scope centered (parrallel)with the bore! My scope has just enough windage adjustment to allow for windage adjustments to about 25MOA.

Its rediculous when a brand new high end Tactical rifle has this kind of problem!!!

My next Remington Rifle was a 700Sendero in 7mmRem Mag. The bolt is not very smooth at all, but the silly thing shoots inside .850" at 100 yards consistantly! (All Reloads mind you).

It seems like its just the luck of the draw.
