Has anyone heard anything about this rifle? I was going to purchase the 700 SS 5R milspec and switch the stock with my other rifle which has the Bell and Carlson A5 medalist stock which I love.
I was on Remington's web site and found this rifle. It has the 5R rifling and the same twist rate as the 700 SS 5R milspec, but it uses a 26" barrel instead of 24" and it's the new triangular VTR-style barrel. It's pretty pricey, but I thought if it shot as well as the 700 SS 5R and it had the stock I wanted already, then perhaps it would be a good bet. Saw a few very positive things but not from any professionals. I'd love to hear from anyone who has had experience with it. Thanks!
