I look at it this way, if anything ever does happen and the world falls apart... I like knowing I can find parts.

The same is true of the Remington 700 bolt action rifles. The military and law enforcement use Remingtons heavily, not to mention the Remington 700 can be found in more homes than any other model of bolt action rifle here in America.
My completely stock 1976Remington 700 in 22-250 prints three shot groups about the size of my thumb nail at 200 yards. Roughly 3/4 of an inch to 1 inch or so...
