Remington 700 SPS
I was looking at this gun up close, it has a black coated bolt. Does anyone know if this wears or gets scuffed up as it is cycled back and forth. Does anyone own one that may know. Huntr2

Yes it will but it is one of the best guns I have ever owned for the money. I bought one in 300 Ultra mag years ago. It was a shooter. I wish I would have kept it. Now I have a Remington XCR 300 ultra mag with a lot of gunsmith work. It's a great gun but it doesn't shoot any better than my SPS did and I spent a ton more dough on it.

rem. 700 sps
i have two of them. one is a 243 varmit rifle and the other in a 30-06 standard. i like both of them. both shoot well especially the 243, but it was meant too. it is used for groundhogs. the 06 is my deer rifle. i worked up loads for both. never looked at the bolts but color means nothing to me as long as they shoot well.
