remington VTR triangle?

[gb0399]

Does anyone know about the Rem 700 VTR with the triangular barrel? How it shoots, how it compares to a standard barrel, against a heavy fluted barrel?

i was just reading a review about this rifle.

http://www.snipercentral.com/vtr.htm

seemed the general consesus was that it didn't offer anything more or do anything better than the sps.

Great link, thanks for that, I'd say that made up my mind

Yeah, the snipercentral review is what changed my mind a while back as well.

Looks cool, but that's about all IMO.

as an adendem to my first post, the review and my first conideration was for the 308 chambered rifle. upon further reflection, the vtr might make for a nice walking rifle in the 17, 22-250, 204, or 223 chamberings.

I don't have the VTR, but do have the 700ADL Varminter. Awsome rifle. Only had it to the range once so far. With whatmany consider to be a crappy stock, and the cheap scope that came with it, I was getting .69 moa using 150gr Remington Core Lokt ammo. Many have reported that after around 75 rounds this will come down to .5 moa. Not bad for a rifle that ended up costing $419 after the Remignton rebate and two rebates from Dick's.
