'smiths: which bolt actions get the most gripes?
is it because of workmanship?

ignorant or lazy owners?

poor design?

trigger? safety? or something else?

thanks.

It depends on who you're working for and what kind of work you do.

In 1969 every other BA rifle I worked on was Remington 700 ADL.......for sling swivels.

All rifle owners have gripes.....even if the gun is perfect they bitch about the price. [Big Grin] [Big Grin]

Remington 700's, 600's I would say and by a large margin..Triggers, extractors mostly.
