So have I. The bolt lift on the one I shot kept getting harder and harder, the cocking piece galled against the bolt because it wasn't lubed. That's a maintenance error, IMO.

What marketing? Most on this site had never heard of them before.
Very unfortunate. That being said everyone else that has shot one seems to be satisfied. Including champion shooters like Mike M.
Common sense would say you have to be good at marketing to sell a Remington action based rifle for 5000 to 7000 dollars. Most here could care less about what is going on on Snipers Hide!

Show me a Tac Ops add. I'll wait.

Seems like the easy thing to do, would be for someone in this thread who owns one, should go out and shoot a couple groups this weekend and shut everyone else up.
Or maybe borrow one from "The friend who owns one".
Posting someone else's groups has never been a good way to settle this kind of argument.
Or does no one in the last 20 or so pages of different threads actually own one?

Did you read the post I made?
I have no business relating to Tac Ops. I'm not even a customer yet.

Must have missed it.
Where did you post a recent target that was sub 1/4 MOA?
If the rifle can do it on demand, someone should be able to produce a target this weekend.

S**t! The abandon thread button isn't working!
Or, maybe, Forum Boss reset it so we could continue to enjoy.
The reason for R700's is because that's what most LE agencies want - their armorers are trained to work on that platform.
He also builds on Surgeons and recently Terminus actions.
The market for TacOps rifles is not this crowd. But all the piling on a product they have no experience with, nor understanding of what goes into those specific rifles, is really unbecoming and trollish. But I guess I shouldn't expect much more from an internet forum...

Nope, you didn't read my post. Go back and re-evaluate your attempt to call me out.
Let's work with the statement "YET"
So your undecided if its truly worth the money?
I can pick any number of gunsmith's across this country and build a Remington a lot cheaper than some of the prices being thrown around, and I can just about guarantee you it'll shoot small sight unseen.
So my questions to you are...
What exactly fascinates you about this rifle?
500 ft lbs of torque on a buttress thread?
The tactical coloring?
The bed liner sprayed on the stock?
The accuracy guarantee that has grown in size?
Or is it simply to say
"I own a Tac-Ops"?
I'm not pickin at ya, just curious as to what your fascination and love affair is.
To support my questions, when my Remington was a factory 30-06 it would shoot .25" 5 shot groups with hand loads @ 100.
Rechamberrd in 6.5-284 its holding .75" @ 300 yards, and I suck as a shooter compared to a lot of the folks responding to these threads.
Cost of my Remington about $2500.
Oh yeah I like my wings spicy!!

More than happy to admit being dumber than a box of rocks, but I am still not finding it. In a different thread?
I see posts where you shot a rifle that failed, but I'm not seeing where you shot sub 1/4 MOA groups and posted a target.
Looking for actual success, from an actual owner......
