Introducing the Remington 700 SPS Long Range Rifle

by PH Online Editors • January 23, 2012 • 3 comments

Remington unveiled it’s brand new Remington 700 SPS Long Range Rifle at SHOT Show 2012 in Las Vegas. This heavy-barrel model is chambered in long-action and long-action Magnum — perfect for long-range hunters — with a more rigid stock material for improved accuracy and pillar beds for a free-floated barrel. Check out the video from SHOT Show!

    Where can I buy one? For some reason it reminds me of the VSSF line from Remington. I own a VSSF in .308 from the 90's. By far the most accurate rifle I have ever owned. I will say that it will be in Rem's best interest to include the .308 as a short action offering in this rifle. Just saying. That alone is THE ONLY REASON I HAVE NOT DROPPED WHAT I AM DOING AND BOUGHT ONE. Hint hint….

    By the way, when this rifle is offered in .308 (Not the XCR, this model), PLEASE offer it with a 1-10" twist. For crying out loud. Will make a big difference in "Long Range" bullet selection. My VSSF does shoot Hornady's 178gr. Match ammo beautifully, but most 1-12's do not. I really wish it was a 1-10, as do most others that own this particular rifle. Again, just sayin'…

    I want to see more reviews on this gun perhaps people who shot it. Other than that it looks like everything I would need in a good rifle I prefer the long action and unlike it's sister rifle sps varmint, this is said to have a free floated barrel
