Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Sako are very lucky that they have Buzman.
A salient point Tahr
Sako's covered , though there shouldn't be a need , however I wonder if Remington had thought of this.

So they assumed Hilary would win and there would be panic buying after the election?
Welcome to Sako club.
And manufactured to suit maybe?

I think the competition is getting stiffer and people are buying more TikkasNo one wants to purchase a rifle and then replace it's trigger straight away.
I have to agree, no one wants a Remington, I struggle to get people to hold one, but I have the same problem with Tikkas, give someone a X Bolt to hold after a Tikka, and there's no competition, biggest sellers up here are Howa, solely on price, followed by browning x bolt.
Remington X Mark Pro triggers suck, they always have , they are useless and every time you go to buy a Remington you should negotiate with the seller the 250$ price of the replacement
If they won't deal buy something else in front of them or go somewhere else.

maybe if they didnt cut costs on the production lines people might buy them.
I think Remington could easily boost some m700 sales by doing a few upgrades that most custom action makers already do: 60 degrees bolt throw, get rid of the inadequate extractor and put a decent claw on, reduce the massive diameter of the receiver and offer it in calibres that are at the cutting edge of what people want. And give Timney or similar some royalties and copy their trigger. The basic design of that action hasn't really changed since its inception. Rifles need to move with the times these days and Remington have been sitting on their hands for too long in my opinion.
