I have pretty much to The same weapon but the one main difference is minus a 300 win mag I had to choose that 1 because that's the weapon I had in the military Remington 700 win mag
It gets the job done. I ended up dropping a Timney 510 trigger in mine. Paired it with a Vortex Viper PST. One thing I ran into this year with the rain was with the Houge stock... it squeaked a lot when I went to shoulder it. Also, you want to clean and oil it pretty good after the rain.. they tend to rust easy. Overall a solid rifle. I love it!
Guys I am new to shooting and in the past two months twice a week with my .223 Rem 700 20" threaded barrel I have been shooting 12 -1" targets , 4 shots each and 8 are 1 MOA and 4 are 1/2 MOA I have 3 rifles , Bergara .22lr , Remington 700 .223 and Bergara 6.5 cm and my favourite is the Remington. I did however replace the trigger just to be safe and get better performance with a triggertech trigger.
damn, i just picked one up from academy, had to make some calls.. 599.99 + 10 %off for a scratched trigger guard. now they are going for 1k plus.. good job on your find bro
Hey man I’m debating the same right now, any reason you went with the 20”? The fact that the 16 is threaded is making me lean towards that for possible suppression later on.
@@manvsdeer In 2013 I was bummed they had a trigger recall. I didn't want to be without my SPS for months, so I dropped in a Timney "The Hit". Atlas front and back. Stiener glass.
Ok buddy nice video. Explain to us how is that gun different from REM model 700 VTR? Beside the barrel being triangular. I'm talking about the bolt action and carrier group. What is the difference in accuracy. Mine is a Marine corps cammo 308 VTR. All I see is the black Remington 700s where are camouflage ones? Looking to buy another. Thanks.
Good looking gun the only thing I am personally not crazy about on the sps models is the coating they use I’m not particularly crazy about it. But you could cerakote it and would be amazing finish and look all in all good gun for the price hope you enjoy it
I’ve looked on gunbroker for one but none have the black bolt on them. The bolt is a combination bare stainless and black. Do u have an exact part number for this one I can look up? Thanks
There is not a removable magazine like you would have in an AR but there is a spring loaded piece that is removable that you press rounds into. I’m not sure if you can get aftermarket mags for them or not
Nice gun. I have the same one. That stock is a piece of crap. Throw it out and get a good aftermarket stock or chassis and your groups will immediately shrink.
@@manvsdeer Its OK as long as you don't put a bipod on it. Any weight on the front of the stock will cause it to flex into the barrel and you'll have accuracy issues. I built mine into a precision rifle so I needed something more stable. For hunting it probably would be fine, it just didn't work for what I needed it to do.
I have a 700 SPS camo in 243. shoots sub MOA with with Hornady American whitetail 100g. That is the only good thing I can say about it. Everything else is garbage. The crappie parkerized finish will rust in a heartbeat. the stock is cheep plastic. And the magazine is supose to hold 4 rounds. But in 4 years, I have only been able to get 4 rounds in it and close the bolt only twice. Usually I can only get 2 rounds in it. I am looking to strip that shitty finish and redo it right, get a new stock and new magazine. I'm thinking it is going to cost me around $900 to have it professionally done. So I'm kinda in a delima. Do I want to spend that much on a gun that I bought brand new for $400? Or just buy another gun. I am on the edge of pulling the trigger on a new Christensen Ridgeline. To get something better than a Christiansen, you'll be buying a custom rifle. I also have a 700 CDL in 300 win mag. Great all around gun. The fit & finish is top notch. Absolutely love it. All 700's ARE NOT the same. Bottom line, you get what you pay for!
You should be more informative of the history of Remington model 700. Explain everything in a next video. That rifle looks very cheesy and cheap compared to the VTR. I wouldn't pay $500 for that. Plus that's heavy to carry over 8 pound's gets annoying walking in the woods for a long period of time. That's also a Covid-19 gun buddy so good luck with it.
I agree that the stock gives it a cheap look, it’s meant to enhance grip but it looks bad in my opinion- now, on the performance side- and I am not a great shooter- all of my rounds touch at 100 yards, so I can’t knock it there! I’ll be putting it to the rest on some wyoming pronghorn later this year
@@manvsdeer yeah brother glad you agree. I'm more old school nobody that I know cares about grip. They just want to point and blow their loads 🤣 anyways far for the range you didn't mention anything about a bipods snipers and hunters need bipods you don't just hold it and shoot it anyway. But yeah I guess some people do if the just wanna have fun with it. I thought it was fun I put mine in two branches in the woods It was a great venox steak position. In between two trees is the way to go for some hardcore action 👊👍

Thanks for the insight, I’ve heard great things about the timney triggers I may end up upgrading later
Guys I am new to shooting and in the past two months twice a week with my .223 Rem 700 20" threaded barrel I have been shooting 12 -1" targets , 4 shots each and 8 are 1 MOA and 4 are 1/2 MOA
I have 3 rifles , Bergara .22lr , Remington 700 .223 and Bergara 6.5 cm and my favourite is the Remington.
I did however replace the trigger just to be safe and get better performance with a triggertech trigger.
Sounds like that practice is paying off, nice work 🤘
I have 2 of the 20 inch barrel 308. One is the heavy barrel the other is the fluted , threaded version. Great guns
I have one of them in an archangel stock with an 8 oz Timney trigger. I constantly get 1/4 inch groups at 200 yards.
Does it have a hinged floorplate?
damn, i just picked one up from academy, had to make some calls.. 599.99 + 10 %off for a scratched trigger guard. now they are going for 1k plus.. good job on your find bro
Congrats man! It was tough to find one took about two months. Just sighted in and I have to say it’s a sweet shooting rifle.
Beautiful rifle. Nice brief, but thorough overview. Looking forward to seeing how accurate it is.
Thanks for the kind words!
I just ordered the same one, looking forward to it, I was stuck between the 16.5 inch barrel and the 20 inch but I decided to roll with the 20’’
Solid choice🤘

@@SoToAnTrAx honestly it’s the only only length I could find the heavier barrel in
It’s a fun rifle to play with. I threw mine into a MDT ESS chassis. Lots of fun. Enjoy!
Thank you, hoping to break it in on an antelope hunt this year 🤘
I really like mine. But the damn thing doesn’t feed well. I’m currently waiting on a detachable magazine kit. Hoping it helps.
NICE! Mine got the Badger Ordnance treatment. Along with a B&C stock. Threaded the barrel as well. Great rifle and if you can find one get it.
Took me forever to find one! Buddy of mine found it at an academy sports
@@manvsdeer In 2013 I was bummed they had a trigger recall. I didn't want to be without my SPS for months, so I dropped in a Timney "The Hit". Atlas front and back. Stiener glass.
I just got this rifle at my LGS for $790 new. I was surprised since, like you said, prices on Gunbroker are ridiculous. I’m happy with it.
Congrats man I’m excited to put mine to work
I picked mine up in dec at academy for 539. I was lucky
I've been wondering about their recent quality and reliability.
Glad to see this one turned out ok. 😎
I’m excited to put it to use this fall 🤘
New quality is wayyyy better

I just got my 700 MLR in 338 lapua today
Nice
Really good video man. Keep it up 👍🏻
Thanks for the kind words!
so if you thread the muzzle does that mean the rifle now is a Remington 700 SPS .308 tactical AAC-SD model ?
I have an sps tactical in 308 that came with the threaded barrel. Zero difference between it and the aac sd besides the writing on the barrel. lol
@@midwestbudgetsurvival3305the big difference between the two is that the SD version has a 1 in 10" twist rifling and the other is 1/12"
Looking at your video again... Mine came with 2 x bolts.. weird.
I love mine just killed a big 10 point with it about 2 weeks ago got a vortex crossfire on it
Nice, congrats brother - can’t wait to put mine to use
Good looking gun the only thing I am personally not crazy about on the sps models is the coating they use I’m not particularly crazy about it. But you could cerakote it and would be amazing finish and look all in all good gun for the price hope you enjoy it
That’s my only gripe as well gonna be hard to keep clean looking 😂
I’ve looked on gunbroker for one but none have the black bolt on them. The bolt is a combination bare stainless and black. Do u have an exact part number for this one I can look up? Thanks
I’ll see if I can find one
Thank you
Does it come with a scope base rail?
Has to be purchased separately check the Amazon links in the description for help 🤘
What kind of sights did you put on it
Vortex viper
Great gun, but I wonder what the weight difference is between that 20” heavy barrel vs a regular 26” barrel
Not sure but it is a heavy rifle 😂 I packed it all over Wyoming looking for antelope and by the end of the day you feel it
Awesome rifle sir
🤘
Just curious how well does your Remington shoot? Is it under 1 moa?
I sighted one with federal 150g soft points. At 100 yards is was under 1 MOA and I am not the best shot 😂
@@manvsdeer no kidding?! Is it a 1 and 10 twist barrel?
@@justinseeton5240 not sure it’s either that or a one in 8
@@manvsdeeractually it's 1/12"
is there a magazine box?
There is not a removable magazine like you would have in an AR but there is a spring loaded piece that is removable that you press rounds into. I’m not sure if you can get aftermarket mags for them or not
Wonder if there will be any warranty issues? With Remington being gone ?
Wondered that myself but it’s a fairly burly weapon so I may never know 😂
Your still photo is misleading.
Where's the scope?
BullyBilly.
Scope has its own unboxing and review video in the gear playlist 🤘
If it has the Hogue stock throw that stock away and get a quality stock. The one I had wouldn't hit at 200 yards unless you used the 300 yard hold.
Dang! I’m hoping I don’t have that problem
I highly recommend the Barnes Vortex bullets in 165 and 168 grains. Great accuracy and performance on game short and long range
Nice gun. I have the same one.
That stock is a piece of crap. Throw it out and get a good aftermarket stock or chassis and your groups will immediately shrink.
I gotta say I don’t like the look of it and I may change it up sometime. As far as feeling it feels ok
