As the title suggests ,has anyone used one and are they better now they have changed ownership? Just curious to see if Remington are still worth considering these days .

Yes I had one in my hands. It is how a proper rifle should be built. The bolt with its 1/4 turn firing pin disassembly is an improvement .
I don’t like how the for end tip finishes on the stock , but that is purely cosmetic.
They carry an impressive price tag dont they?
Whats a proper price tag? are we talking Sako expensive ? Wonder how they shoot ?
Depends which sako but don’t quote me on that because I haven’t actually seen one for sale to look at the tag I just remember googling them when they first came about I belive the come factory in a ag carbon stock and timney trigger I imagen they shoot very well most rifles do now days I remember they were surprisingly heavy thoughQuote:

And yes I believe the pricing is the issue. They are not cheap once they arrive here.
Their about $4,500. The sako 90s are in the 6k bracket.
Like the op I'd love to just pick one up and have a fondle.
For the money i'd rather buy a Fierce or a Christensen, love remmys but to me its overpriced and is only what you normally do to a remmy anyway.
