[QUOTE="therifleman556, post: 1489247, member: 101898"] That was my first thought. When I read the specs I thought: Air gauged premium button rifled barrel (like a Douglas, McGowan, etc) Badger rail (pretty standard) 40x trigger (what's that, a worked over x-Mark? If it is, no thank you) Bedded with Marine-tex (like many other basement builds) I haven't heard of the stock maker but let's assume it's top of the line stuff. That's still about $500~ in the stock, $400 in the barrel (being generous I think), $100 in optic mount, $150 (again optimistic) in the trigger; on an action that retails for anywhere from $300 to let's say $500. That's still only $1600 (using high figures). Why would anyone pay Remington this kind of money when they could very easily spend less and come out the same (or better)??? [/QUOTE]
