Didn't Remington already try this recently with the Mausers they were selling? Anyway, from my understanding Dakota isn't healthy enough for them to saddle them with debt and flip them.




(quote)...As for Remington's, there is not one in my home, nor will there be. I have more than a few Weatherby's thou.

IMHO, their (Remington) latest attempt with the mauser style action was/is a POS..sights are laughable and overall workmanship sucks..actions feel like they were pulled 10 miles down a gravel road..

As to the other statement, personally feel the same about weatherby's as you apparenlty do about remingtons..when weatherby's lightweight versions come out a few years back I tried 4 NEW out of the box rifles in .257..not one would shoot consistantly under 2" at 100 yards and a couple was much greater than that..withe their factory ammo...tried one more in a .280 --same thing...

Love the .257 Weatherby caliber...but as to quality, think they are no different than a new Howa of today..
