didnt read the post...

but from my experience, the difference in m700 prices is stocks, and that sorta thing...

i bought a 700sps varmint the year they came out(think it was the first year)

its their lowest grade 700 if im not mistaken...

stock is CHEAP...but, the trigger is the same...but, its a m700 action! and ive fired multiple 5 shot sub-moa groups at 100yds...i might get called a liar...but rifle was stock and shooting the cheapest UMC value pack 22-250 ammo...

call me a liar...i too was in shock when i printed the first target...i had to sit at the range and do it a couple more times...and i did...

id like to take credit as the guy behind the trigger, but without a gun that can do it, the shooter cant achieve it...

i know alot of other guys on forums with the sps varmint and we all agree, shes a shooter right out of the box...i havent heard one complaint yet...

cant wait to swap the cheesy stock and float the barrel and have the trigger done..and work up some hand loads...excited to see what she can do then...im expecting 1 ragged hole...likely wont stop working on loads till i can do it...

so my thoughts are, a m700 is a m700 action...and when i swap the stock, it'll be hard to tell its the SPS other than the magazine floor plate drops instead of a detachable mag...but, its my varmint rifle...i could care less how it loads or unloads...big game rifle, i prefer a DM as im usually doing drives and in and out of the truck once every hour or 2 loading and unloading...just more convinent to drop a mag and work the action back and be unloaded...
