I purchased a used 547 in 22lr of gun broker.. Right off the bat it would not extract a spent case.. I took it to my gunsmith and after jumping through many hoops he had to send it to an authorized Remington Dealer and they sent it back to the Custom Shop.. It was returned to the dealership and sent back to my smith.. Now to the problem...The dam thing has no consistency in shooting..(It will not shot good groups)..It will shoot 2 or 3 shots in the same hole (At 25 yards) then you get a 1 inch flyer...So my Smith took a look down the Bore and there is a large gouge near the Muzzle end..It rounds off some of the Lands and fills in some of the groves.. This could be the problem as more than one person has shot this rifle with the same unhappy results...My smith said it could have been made from a cleaning type rod but thinks that it is very unlikely..(Due to the nature and severity of the damage)..He said it also could have come from the shop like this ..I think Remington may say otherwise.. What do you guys think/?? Do I have any recourse to get this straightened out?? There is a lifetime warranty but i am not sure if it will cover this... The first trip to the custom shop cost me the beautiful trigger job that someone had done to it..(Remington said it was not safe).. I wish they would have looked at the way the barrel was fit into the stock and taken care of that issue.. Crooked as all heck...
