Folks, a buddy of mine recently offered me a Remington 710 in 30.06, which includes a mounted Bushnell 3x9 scope, for $200.00.
I bought it for one of my sons, but he decided that too many people said too many bad things about that model on line, and now doesn't want it.
I have heard that it has a lot of plastic parts, but is there anything seriously defective about it? Is it dangerous or inaccurate to shoot? It appears to be in new condition, and the owner says he only shot 8 rounds through it. I mean, $200.00 is pretty cheap for any kind of rifle that includes a scope, so I figured I couldn't go wrong with it, am I wrong and just purchased a lemon? Please share your thoughts, thanks!
