I bought myself a Christmas gift last night. A Remington 700SPS varmiter in .308win. I'm fairly new to the .308 round (I've shot a few borrowed savages, but never owned a .308 previously) and I'm also new to Remington rifles.
I was just wondering if there are any other 700 SPS owners out there and what you guys think of the rifle. Mine has a 26" barrel, but most information i see on the .308 is for a 20" barrel. Is 20" the ideal barrel length?
I will post pictures of the rifle once the scope is mounted. For glass, I have a Bushnell Elite 4200 8-32x40 (I won it in a .22lr benchrest shoot) The scope might be overkill, but i'll probably keep it on the lower end.
Also, if any of you more experienced shooters have an .308 or Remington wisdom to share, I'm willing to learn.
