Re: New stock better than Rem 5R stock, similar cost
I bought a 5r take off for my SPS Tactical for $200 shipped. Just my opinion gut here is the ranking

Re: bedding a 700 tactical with a Hogue stock
The problem with the Hogue is using it with a bipod the forearm flexes enough to make contact with the barrel, a no no. I used fiberglass fabric and mixed resin to fill the voids. It really helped but I ended up buying a 5r take off by HS...
Re: Introductions, first precision rifle (Rem 700 SPS)
Looks like a good start. Nice groups for your first time out. Check out the FAQs on this forum for some good basics. I have heard alot of good things about the scope you are using. I shot mine today moving out to 300 yds. Talk about...
Re: Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700?
Got it installed in about 45 minutes. Would have been quicker if I had paid attenton on how the spring for the bolt release went. I finally figured it out by looking for the shinny points that contact the release bar. Made a world of difference...
Re: noob to bolt guns, need help
I have the std SPS Tactical with X-Mark Pro trigger and just changed it out with a Timney. I tried to adjust the pull but could never get it down to what I wanted. The Timney is much better IMHO. Also bought a 5r HSP "take off" from a member here. Seems...
Re: Introductions, first precision rifle (Rem 700 SPS)
The issue on the Hogue overmold is that it flexes somwhat especialy when using a bipod. I took some fiberglass maerial and cut it to the size of the "compartments" in the forend, then filled it with fiberglass resin. It did stiffen up...
Re: Introductions, first precision rifle (Rem 700 SPS)
Welcome, did the same thing. Bought the same gun to build a LR rifle (308 ?). So far I have added a HS Precision stock, Nikon Monarch 5-20 Warne rings and Burris mounts, harris bipod. This weekend installed a Timney trigger.
Re: Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700?
Just recieved m Timney in the mail today. I m impressed with it seems much nicer than the X Mark. Any tips to installation?
Re: Jewell versus Timney for Remington 700?
I have a Timney in a rebarreled Mauser that had a 2 stage military trigger. It made a huge improvement. I have a Timeny on order from Botach. Sells for $120 delivered no sales tax or shipping. If you need the safety with bolt release it will be...
Re: stock on remmy milspec 5R
This is a 5r take off with a SPS Tactical in .308, it has a palm swell but not too large. I paid $200 delivered. From what I read, the LTR has a shorter stock.
Re: Does Rem 700SPS Tac Shoot Well?.....HELL YES
Some stuff I bought at Walmart auto section
Rugged up plastic with a dremel
made cardboard dam for recoil lug
cut fiberglassmaterial
It gets hot and you have about 5 minutes work time
Re: Does Rem 700SPS Tac Shoot Well?.....HELL YES
I took the Hogue and filled in the cavities on the forend with fiberglass. It did stifen it up but went ahead and bought the HS take off.

Re: Does Rem 700SPS Tac Shoot Well?.....HELL YES
Had my SPS for about 2 mos. I replaced the Hogue with a 5 r take off HSP and just ordered a Timney trigger. The barrel did not free float when using the bipod. Looks like you are doing something right.
Re: Tactical Bolt Rifle; pick ur side...
Decided to dip my toe in the LR shooting sport. Bought a Rem 700 SPS Tac for $595 delivered. Threw away the Hogue overmold stock and added a 5r HSP take off stock for $200. I am pretty happy with the setup (Nikon Monarch 5-20) and definitely will...
Re: AK question for those in the "KNOW"
Not to smear the PAP (sic) it is a bastard AK. First it is a 10 rd mag and wil not take the std AK mag. The terrible thumbhole stock cannot be replaced because it is not standard and no one make an aftermarket stock for it. That being said I own 4...
Re: remington 700 tactical 308 questions
I have had one for about three months. First thing I did was get rid of the Hogue and bought a 5r tkae off HSP for $200 deivered. Bought mine off Gunbroker for $549 + $25 shipping and $20 to my FFL so it was $595 OTD. I have only shot it at 250 yds...
