[QUOTE="DRC458, post: 2895132, member: 530"] Ain't no big thang ... long as you know what you got. Either one is a good rifle. I'm partial to Winchester. Nothing wrong with Remington 700. As you already mentioned ... ditch the scope and go for some quality optics. You say you have thoroughly cleaned ... good deal. I would check to be sure the barrel is free floated. Check torque on bedding screws. Since you're gonna' replace the optics anyway, I would take it out of the stock entirely and search for any hidden damage. Screw it back together, make sure scope bases and rings are tight. Hit the range and give us a report. Nice find! (and, good luck on the elk hunt ... we need details!) [/QUOTE]
