My remington nitro piston ss feels gritty when i am cocking it.
i have shot 700 pellets through it.
it feels like something is scraping metal to metal.

Should this feel buttery smooth?

If it wasn't there initially- it shouldn't have started. Is it still under warranty, or would you prefer to disassemble and determine what's making the noise? It may very well just be the tube being smoothed out- leaving some steel grit behind, which a proper clean/lube would eliminate.

So, do you have the same problem with shots being off at 45ft versus 65ft., as you had earleir posted??

I don't know if the first gun was shooting like the replacement
one does.
I still have the first gun. I will shoot them both tonight and post my results
