    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    The FNH TBM & Mags are GTG I use them on my SPR, I have no first hand experience with PT&G other than research that showed they do not quite fit the factory inlet on McMillan stocks but can be used with minimal modifications . The mag system I'm referring to came with the PBR and utilized a...

    FN Spr value

    Mine shoot lights out so they are priceless as far as I'm concerned and since they don't make them anymore hang on to them and ENJOY! Most other precision rifles start @ 3K plus and may or may not shoot any better YMMV so in my mind if push came to shove 3K depending on the rifle and it's...

    Near rails on both of mine along with ARC rings , no problems and swapping scopes with rings attached between rifles results in little or no shift in impact @100yds!

    Are the FN SPR enthusiasts extinct?

    The trigger on SPR&PBR are VERY adjustable and mine are just what I need, they are very crisp, however they are not a two stage if that is what you prefer and or are used to!. I prefer a two stage on my AR type rifles but NOT on my Bolt Actions but that is just me!

The GEN II has...
