Help me choose which Remington 700
I’m looking for a Remington 700 in 243. My LGS has a stainless SPS for $550 and a XHR for $690. I’m looking to punch holes in paper and to hunt with it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I don’t know much about either model other than they both had the new adjustable trigger. Don’t know if they both have free floating barrels. If I decide to, I don’t know if the XHR would limit my ability to later modify the rifle. Can’t decide if I want a stainless or carbon steel. Is stainless more accurate and easier to maintain?
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
