Hey, I'm new to this and my only purpose to this is that i need some professional non-biased answers. First, i am 17 years old and am looking for a remington 700 tactical rifle either the sps tactical or the police model. I am set on .308 and a heavy contour barrel. I am new to precision shooting but would still like a rifle that is respected by professional shooters. I would like to use it for 500 yardish range in hunting and target shooting, but still be able to hit something at 800 yards. I have been doing my research on these and have noticed some pros and cons. first, the police is more expensive and has a longer barrel. I belive it will be good at long range because i heard that the sps tactical 20inch barrel is not accurate and looses velocity which in turn, loses knockdown energy. also people complain that the hogue stock on the sps tactical is not good at all. The police model is bedded and the tactical is not. I am semi tight on money but i am looking for the rifle that best suits me. what rae some pros and cons about both? Also, the sps varmint i heard is EXACTLY the same as the police, but with a different stock. I am not a super seriuos shooter, but would still appreciate a well looking and accurate shooting rifle. anyone have any experiemce or suggestions, please help me out and excuse the grammar, this only tooking me a couple minutes to type up. Thnks.
