What's the Reputation of Thompson Center Arms rifles?

Looking to buy an inexpensive 308.

Don't really know much about TCA.

Any opinions?

Stick to the oldie but goodie Remington 770?

Best cold shot performance on a consistent basis across many rifles tends to be the Savage.

I've had good reports back from customers on the Howa...but those have been less than .3" diameter. Same rifle as the Weatherby Vanguard.

TCA makes high quality firearms and they have a good customer service/warranty. I'd go with TCA or Savage over the Remington.

I love my Encores and I would not consider the 770 a "good old anything". Savage has the lower end market cornered.

Thompson Center Arms is one of the finest quality made single-shot firearms on the market today.

TCA would be a huge upgrade to a 770.

I've never heard anybody call the Remington 770 an oldie but goodie.
Maybe he had a typo (meant 700)

This 770 might be considered an oldie but goodie

All my experience with TC firearms have been very positive. I doubt you wold regret buying one.

They're pretty good. I shot a .22-250 and it shot very well, MOA all day long.
