Yep,excellent rifle. It is a tad heavier than I expected but still nice. The camo job is O.K, but they put the seam on the top of the stock Confused

It handles and points well. My rifle is in a .204, and every load with the 35gr. bergers shot about .6 -.7 and one load with the 32 gr. vmaxes shot 5 shots into .597 and 4 shots into .389 center to center Angel

I think this is a good rifle for the money.

I have a 204 and my little brother has a 22-250. They are a tack driving machine. I agree the camo could be better like the Browning soft touch. We've been busting milk jugs at 300+ yards, while getting ready for deer season.

Hi Elk, being a long time Remington man calling them the best working man's rifle I have had to make time to think a little as I bought a FLV in the 204 and price was great and it is a tack driver with the accu trigger.
Also I have been hearing great things about the Weatherby Vanguard.
Remington still make a good rifle in my opinion as I did buy a CDL last fall and it has been excellent, the 24" barrel is what the standard calibers have needed from Remington for a long time.
