How much blowback is there from the primer?

Does Remington still tell you to "stick a coin in a vise" to take apart their bolt?

Do you find it muzzle-heavy?

I have a Remington ML and love it. I have since handed it down to my wife since I have a Encore now. But I still have lost the love for the Remington. I hope to get a conversion kit for some time this summer. :D

Hi rpseven go with the one Cabelas has it is made in Canada dont go with the Rem. made one the primer holder has to much blow back and the after maket one that Cabelas has is a better one my dad and brother put one in there's if i ever get another one i am thinking about the Encore so i can sell some of my guns and just buy the barrels for the Encore Rifle good to hear from u VM

Thanks varmit_master for the advise on the cabelas conversion kit. I haven't really checked into any of them yet and I will probably go with the cabelas.  :D
