I'm gonna take a different route here. i was just faced with the same dillemma recently and ended up with a Ruger M77 Stainless, because of value. I got a great 'all weather' rifle for the same price as the basic Rem. 700 or Win. 70. I've heard negative feedback on the 'new' model 70's, so I was worried about that. the 700 is a GREAT rifle, but for the money, to get a stainless rifle, with a floorplate (translation, NOT an ADL) Remingtons get upwards of $700-$800. So I got the Ruger for about $450 and have been VERY happy!

Let us know what you get!

4570Rick,

I want to know how come you only paid $169 when I paid $189. Oh, that's right, mine was a Varmint Special.

Seriously, I would say Remington would be my number one choice but only because of personal taste.

Bought my first Rem 700 Varmint special (.243) in '68, my second was a .222 in 1981 and in 1993 bought my Remington 700 PSS in .223.

I found all three to be more accurate than me but I'm sure the same could be said by others about Winchester and Ruger.

Safe shooting.:)
