[QUOTE="Lungdeflator, post: 193354, member: 5163"] Thought I would give an update on what is going on with the rifle issue. Rifle was sent to Scheels in Omaha because that is where they do the work on Remingtons. Rifle came back last week. Like I said before, I am not very knowledgeable on guns, and I wish I would've taken a picture of the receipt when it came back to give you guys the full details. They ended up taking 3/8" off the muzzle and rotating something 90degrees. Labor for that was 65$. Labor for 2.5hrs of range time while they shot the rifle to check it was 110$. 37$ in shipping costs put it around 215$ total. They said causes could have been shooting bad ammo through it (they specifically mentioned hand loads), or dropping it or knocking it against something hard. I also wish I would have taken pictures of the rifle before sending it in, it was flawless, no marks or damage anywhere. So basically my word against theirs that I invoked the damage. The rifle has never been dropped or hit on something hard. I was told at the time I sent it in, if it is a warranty thing, all I would have to pay for would be shipping. Turns out Remington only has a 2 year warranty. Long story short, now I feel as if I am stuck with a 200$ bill for something that was bad out of the box. Probably my fault for not shooting it more right away when I bought it and realizing the issue before the 2 years was up. I feel bad for getting angry with Scheels, when they are just the middle man. What do you guys think? Should Remington fix the rifle for free? [/QUOTE]
