Yeah, it’s a tough choice - I debated back and forth between the two for quite a while before I made a decision. They both seem like good rifles, I’m sure you can’t go wrong with either. Does the Remington come with a written lifetime warranty? I bought a Remington V3 shotgun a while ago and had some issues with it, Remington/Gravel Agencies took care of it no questions asked. I was really impressed with the way it was handled - makes me want to buy more Remington stuff in the future. Not sure what the Ruger warranty dept is like - hopefully I don’t have to find out!
