[QUOTE="marksman1941, post: 2941039, member: 68542"] This is a relatively new (probably last 8 years or so) Remington 700 that I recently picked up used. It shoots incredibly well. I took it hunting yesterday and it spent 20 minutes in the rain, and then sat in its case for about 5 hours afterwards before I got home. I have never seen so much surface rust so fast, or from such little exposure. Is this just an example of Remington metal quality? Or do we have some gnarly rain in my parts? My 60’s era BSA majestic got soaked for 7 hours the same day and cased for the ride home and was clean as a whistle upon uncasing. [/QUOTE]
