Rifles

Remington/Ford Winchester/Chevy?

Uploaded on February 03, 2009

I remember reading or hearing a while back about a survey that was done that said people who drive Fords are much more likely to favor Remington rifles, and people who drive Chevys are much more likely to favor Winchesters. Anyone remember hearing this? Strangely enough from my personal observation I believe there is some truth to it, and I will even take it one step farther - I have noticed an uncanny number of people I have known over the years who drive Dodges who also prefer Rugers. What do you think? Also, let's do our own little survey.
What do you drive? What do you shoot?
I'll start with 1 for Ford/Remington

Chevy,/ Remington, Ruger, milsurp ar 15. i think this will be very hard to prove to be true, because alot of people buy what they can get the best deal in, trucks and guns.

What can I say? I shoot Remington and Winchester; drive Ford and Dodge... (But Ford is my favorite vehicle and Marlin is my favorite gun)

Not a hint of truth to your theory. I drive a Chevy, and hate fords with a passion. I shoot Remingtons almost exclusively (not just rifles), and cannot stand to even touch those sorry excuses Winchester calls rifles or any Winchester for that matter.

Ford/Winchester. But as for trucks, I really don't care, as long as it does the tasks and lasts for years and years. I believe most trucks are built that way with a few I have my doubts about. I don't prefer either or. I'm the same way with rifles, I know Winchester's and Remingtons will do the job for years...but hard to beat the reputation of the M700.

Let's throw a monkey wrench into the works. I drive a Jeep and I have Remington, Winchester and Browning rifles. All the rifles are accurate and trustworthy just like Chevy's, Fords and even Jeeps.

I drive a dodge and I own remington, winchester, ruger, weatherby and a few others. For what it is worth my favorite rifle is the Reminton 700 BDL, and the Remington 1100 shotguns.

If anyone's interrested I just got to wondering where I saw this so I did a search and it looks like it originated from a blurb that was in American Rifleman magazine in '04 or '05 but I don't have the old issues to check and I don't know where they got their information.

The reviews of the new FNH Winchesters' accuracy that I have read have not been spectacular. I was really expecting more in the gun press, but haven't seen much glowing press about them. I guess it's tough to get excited over 2 inch groups when almost every rifle out there will do better these days. I guess I'd rather push my Chevy than drive a Ford truck....
