nico243 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Now it may be time for me to eat humble pie!! (well actually I said I would eat my hat IIRC) I swore I would NEVER own or even entertain the idea of owning a REMINGTON 700 of any description, but I have to say I am rather smitten with the looks of the new 700 VTR, admittedly it is a rather quirky looking beastie, but................ I like it! I am seriously considering one and maybe dropping my existing .308.............? What are the opinions of you learned gentlemen?? http://www.remington.com/products/fi...el_700_vtr.asp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I had a buddy of mine contact me about one I spotted in a neighboring city. It was a .223 that was selling for $700 US. We talked about me picking it up and shipping to to his dealer and he decided to wait out a test report or three. I'd advise the same. Remington hasn't exactly been hitting home-runs with their products lately. (forgive the baseball parlance...) ~Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redfox Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Have a look at the thread "pretty interesting" pretty well covers it. Wouldnt be any of my money going on one, PSS, Sendero, VSSF, etc all proven shooters! Redfox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vermincinerator Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Neco, if they have just been released in the states it will be 18 months to 2 years before they appear in this country, thats of course if the importers can be bothered to bring them in. Have you ever tried getting a Remmy thats a little out of the ordinary or one of the less popular calibres???? nuff said Ian. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
