RE: SPS prices??
i bought my varminter in .22-250 for 550 at dick's sporting goods. it has the 26" heavy barrel, OD green stock(which i havent seen anywhere else and i like it..) and came with rings, bases and a 4-12x40 scope. rings were stripped before i touched them. put one weaver quad locks and bases. scope isnt to bad for a generic, cheap scope. works for now...till i get my new one.
