Default RE: Looking for opions on Reminton SPS 700

I have bought 2 in the last 5 months for my sons. One is in 7mm-08 and is the most accurate rifle I own, it will consistently shoot 1" groups with nearly any factory ammo from a shooter that is not capable of better than 1" . The other is a .270 which does not seem to be as accurate. I have fired Rem 130 core-lokts and Rem 115 gr managed recoil at an avg of approx 2". I have Hornady 130 gr SP and 150 gr SP I will try next.

In my opinion, the SPS is as good a value as you will find in the firearm world. The trigger is horrible out of the box but is very easy to adjust to a crisp 3 lbs. Try this http://www.varminthunters.com/tech/crisp.html to adjust the trigger. I was never a Remington fan but the 7-08 converted me. Hopefully I can find ammo that the .270 likes. Good luck.
