Its bulky, heavier, and just not as easy/comfortable to handle when on the move imo. To each their own I suppose. Personally I think for a hunting rifle the factory stock or one similar would do just fine for your needs.

Im not sure but it looks like the Bell and Carlson stock you have is set up for a varmint barrel. It looks list you have a standard barrel. I could be wrong. Just an observation.

I covered wax paper with blue painters tape. Then I cut the wax paper with the tape to 8.5x11 or the size of a sheet of computer paper. I then drew up some shape outlines on the computer and printed them on the tape/wax paper I made. Once the ink dried I just used a razor to cut them out...

Here is a better picture of it.

I finally got rid of the tupperware stock that came on my Remington 700 SPS-V .308 :) I also tried doing some camo for the first time. I used khaki, army green, and black camouflage paint from walmart. I wish the green had came out darker... Overall im satisfied with it for my first camo...

I have 120 rounds of CETME 7.62 FMJ that I got for a good deal. When I bought it I didn't realize it had corrosive primers. Is this stuff OK to shoot out of my rem 700 .308? The box reads CETME CSP-003 7.62mm 1962. I don't want to mess up my nice clean bore with corrosive ammo. If I clean it...

Re: My new Rem 700 SPS-V .308 What would be a good replacement stock for around $250-$350? Im also going to buy a timney trigger. Ive seen some really nice stocks for 400-500ish but thats pushing my budget. Ive been eyeballing the 700P HS stock and its around $340, but if I can get...

Re: My new Rem 700 SPS-V .308 I received my EGW 20moa base and Burris low rings today. The weather was crappy outside but I decided to mount the scope and try her out anyways. I was shooting 1moa with the occasional stray using 168gr amax. I don't like the trigger on this gun. I have...

Re: My new Rem 700 SPS-V .308 Cabelas has the Rem 700 Sps varmint on sale this month for $499. I just paid $617 at another store, so I feel like crap right now lol

Re: My new Rem 700 SPS-V .308 I paid $617 for mine. I thought it was a good deal. Plus I sent in for a $40 rebate through Remington that expired at the end of 2012, so I made it just in time

Re: My new Rem 700 SPS-V .308 I ordered my scope rings and base today. I went with a EGW 20moa elevated base and Burris extreme 1" low rings. I hope there is enough clearance with my Bushnell Elite 10x40 scope. I'm worried that with the elevated base and a heavy barrel that the scope wont...

Re: My new Rem 700 SPS-V .308 For now im just planning a stock and trigger upgrade. I don't load yet but that's something i hope to get into soon. I hear the 168gr hornady amax are pretty consistant.

I finally got the rifle ive been wanting for a long time now, a Remington 700 SPS Varmint .308 win. I had always planned on buying this gun but never pulled the trigger until I saw it at a gun store and couldn't say no I want to use this as a starting platform for a target shooter. I have a...

Trying to determine if I need medium or low rings on my Remington 700 SPS Varmint .308 with heavy barrel, 20moa 1-piece scope base, and a 40mm scope. The rings I will be using are Burris Extreme Picatinny 1" rings. Im thinking because of the slightly larger barrel and the elevated base the...

Re: Choosing scope. Fixed vs Variable. UPDATE: I recieved my scopes along with the base and rings. 1st, the Bushnell 10x40 which im going to use on another gun looks fantastic. It has a quality feel to it and the glass is clear. I cant wait to mount it. I bought Burris base and extreme...

Re: Choosing scope. Fixed vs Variable. I ended up going with a Nikon Prostaff 4-12x40 Mil-Dot scope which I got a good deal on. Im going to throw the Bushnell 10x40 on a Remington 700 SPS-V .308. I appreciate all the help. Thanks.

What's the best way to free float the barrel and install pillar mounts on a rem 700 heavy barrel varmint. 308? Or is it worth it to just buy an afterm arket stock?

Re: Choosing scope. Fixed vs Variable. Was looking at vortex scopes. Are these any good? I found this one Vortex Diamondback 4-12x40. Do you think its strong enough for the recoil?

Re: Choosing scope. Fixed vs Variable. I do have a Harris bi-pod im putting on it. I dont plan on shooting 20x without some kind of support for the gun. I figured 6x would be good for off hand shooting while still having a 20x for bench shooting. I installed a recoil pad that helped alot...
