Been lurking around this forum for quite some time, decided to become a member. I'm new to bolt action rifles, in the sense that I've never really owned one, but have shot a few over the years. Anyway, I've been wanting to put together some sort of tactical rifle for a while now and after months of research I've narrowed it down to a .308 Remington 700 SPS.
Specifically, this one here:

In addition, I think this chassis is totally cool (not sure which model is right for the SPS 700 - LA or SA?):

My only concern is regarding the Remington 700 SPS - I've read reviews (many reviews) that have said the rifle has FTF issues. Have any of you found this to be true?
If I replace the factory stock with the Accuracy International chassis, will that eliminate any possible FTF issues?
