Remington has a long history of providing accurate and dependable firearms. One of these core firearms is the legendary 700 series of rifles. One branch of this well-developed tree is the SPS line. Starting with the heart of this rifle is the milled stainless steel receiver that is also drilled and tapped for adding your favorite optics and bases. Inside the receiver is the same carefully machined bolt, that in this case comes with a tactical bolt handle. Allowing for a consistent lock-up and a faster bolt-through no matter the conditions. Affixed to the receiver is the 416 R fluted steel barrel that helps set the benchmark for potential accuracy. Using concentric fluting on the barrel helps reduce the weight without giving up that heavy barrel shooting potential. This style of rifling provides improved contact with the bullet and reduced ware. Lending to excellent performance for years to come. All of this masterful metal is then firmly bedded into a stunning polymer stock. All of these features combine to bring a rifle that is ready to take you from hunting to refining your skills at the range.
