AJ Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 Re: remington model 700 sps It's a Remington 700, that's it. They have different versions that are cosmetic or have different stocks, but the guts are the same. The actions are the same on all guns from the ADL to the best thing the Custom Shop sends out. I have nto seen one that I could not get down to at least 1 MOA at 100 yards. It may have taken a little work on the bedding or forend, but they usually get dialed in.

If you want an accuracy guarantee, buy a different gun. I seriously doubt you will get a "broke" gun. I'll lay dollars to donuts it will fire, feed, extract, and eject just fine.

wtnhunt Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Re: remington model 700 sps I have a 700 adl that came from wal mart over 10 years ago in .270. The gun has been and is a great shooting deer rifle. Wal mart here has a really pretty 700 adl in .270 with a laminated wood stock for $438. Really sharp looking rifle, looks just like the varmint laminated stock rifles. If it were in a 30-06 I would buy the gun in a heartbeat, only reason I havent I really dont need another .270 right now and have my mind set on a 30-06.
