Saw on their website where Remington's ADL synthetic stock has a raised cheek piece. That got me interested! Is this for real? I have not held one of these rifles.
Last week I was looking at Browning rifles. I went in with the intent of buying an A Bolt II Hunter. I picked up the fancier Browning A-Bolt II, with the raised cheek piece, and the ergonomics felt so good that I was subsequently disappointed with the stock of the A Bolt II Hunter. So I didn't buy the Hunter, and really didn't have the dough for the A Bolt II. Asking price was over $550.
Which brings me to this Remington ADL Synthetic. If it has a raised cheek piece, along with iron sights and the "legenddary Model 700 accuracy", I would think it would be a "BEST BUY" in caliber .308. Suggested retail is $457 and I would think I could beat that.
Top it off with a good scope, and I should have a darn fine deer rifle that can still be used with iron sights if the scope fails.
Am I missing something?
