“where odd circumstances and circumstantial evidence was contorted to indicate Remington screwed up somehow.”

Nope. Rifles straight off the line fire when closing the bolt or releasing the safety.

I’ll have to defer to you if you own one. I don’t own one but I find it difficult to believe.

My 700PSS did that at the range. It has been fired less than 10 rds since purchase in 1999. Very disconcerting. It has a very tight throat and requires .308 Win ammo. The 7.62x51 NATO doesn't fit the chamber.

125 reported incidents out of 20,000,000 firearms using the Remington common fire control group works out to .000625%. It doesn’t seem like much of an issue with the fire control group to me. I would jump at the chance to buy anything that had a .000625% chance of failing.
