Who makes the REMINGTON branded scopes found on the REM package rifles?

I don't know the answer to your question. But it seems like a 'deal' you may want to stay away from. If you like the rifle, buy it and then get a scope that you like (and can afford). I've seen several 'package' deals that sell you a gun and a scope...this is how I would rate the scope: If you were to travel to another country and they offered a sandwich with 'meat' and fries...would you eat it? Is it beef? chicken? pork? horse? cat?
My point is, if they aren't proud enough to say "Remington Model 700 with a _______ scope. You probably don't want the scope.

My take on packages like that is they pick out a cheap scope, and give it to you to get you to buy a rifle, and think you got a good deal. Save your money, and buy the rifle you want, and a decent scope. A pretty good scope can be had for fairly little money these days. Say $200
