Yah, or Nah

A local store has the Rem 770 w/scope in 243 Win, on clearance for $190.00. Do I buy it or not waste the money.

 

[Gr8bawana]

Hmm...$190? This may be another one of those times where you get what you pay for, but you might get lucky.

 

[LCH]

Not unless it's got a $190 scope.. Haha

 

[D4570]

NEW?
You need to buy it even if just to trade.

If you find a piece of crap for x amount of money and they mark it down to 190.00, its still a piece of crap.

Yeah, I'm thinking pretty much the same, but if it doesn't shoot worth a crap past 100 yds I could keep it as a klunker truck gun to ward off zombie invasions, rabid coyotes/ coons/ex-wives and general politically motivated malcontents.

 

[Mallardsx2]

Nah.

 

[belshawelk]

all I know is bought the only piece of crap that's a bigger piece of crap. The 710 in 30-06. I still have it. I leave it at my cabin as a triple back up gun, or I am hoping someone steals it, not sure which. The 710 started the whole plastic cheap guns. It actually will shoot just over a 1" group but its at least 12 years old when Remington still made good stuff. I actually wish it was a .243 because it would be that perfect throw in in your truck, quad and if you see a coyote or something shoot it. You wouldn't worry it it gets scratched up. Actually it may look better.

You could always pull off the scope/barrel and use it as a bat....

Don't know much about the 770, but my 783 in 308 is a shooter with several factory rounds. I'd pay $200 for it every day.

 

[WyoDoug]

Inspect it carefully including the barrell. I thought I had a deal awhile back like that. The barrel was badly pitted. If it's really in good condition, I would buy it to sell to someone else. Completely inspect it though before pulling the trigger.

 

[elkhnter]

Good truck or quad gun, but not good for much else. Tomato stake in a few years.

 

[midwesthunter]

770 is junk, 783 would be the cheapest Remington I would buy.

 

[deer_shooter]

Nah. Not worth the hassle

 

[1_pointer]

If the 770 had more typical threaded barrel, I'd say yes just for a project. Them being press fit it'd be an easy pass for me.

 

[Brian in Montana]

I don't know much about the 770 model but I could probably think of some other things to spend that $190 on.

 

[quiet22]

I would only buy the 770 if it was chambered in a man=bun caliber........

Nah.
