Re: SPS Tactical
I was at a gun show last week , and was talking to one of the venders that I always talk with a bit. He said the same thing, but, he also said that about mid year they was going to offer another rifle that is basicaly the same with a better stock. The manufacturer of the the stock to be used was in limbo.
It makes some sense due to the fact the SPS stock used now cause was such a dud and Remington caught alot of flack over it.

doing a quick re-enactment it times out to about 00:00:55

Re: SPS Tactical
If they're launching something similar but in a better stock, then it's a good thing. As it is, it was probably eating into PSS and LTR sales. $550 for the rifle - $45-$60 for the Hogue + $150-$250 for a used HS stock and you're good to go. Mine looks nice in a new 5R stock I was lucky to grab but I have a PSS stock heading my way for a comparison purposes.

Re: SPS Tactical
i think it was semi-smart marketing.
with a rebate i got a brand new remington with a varmint barrel for $500, if anything it was cutting into savage 10fp sales (same price) since LTR and PSS both live comfy in the 900-1000 range.
the hogue stock was a joke in the form of keeping prices low.

Re: SPS Tactical
The Hogue stock may have been a joke, but was a better stock than that of wich came on the regular SPS, that stock was a joke.

It took a good bite out of FN sales I'm guessing as well.
