[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 883871, member: 12995"] Like MMERS said, same action, different barrel, stock, and designation. It does seem, however, that the Senderos were put together with slightly more care and attention to details. I have seen 700's that wouldn't group well, but I've never seen a Sendero that wouldn't shoot, unless the barrel was shot-out. If you're looking to build a rifle, the cheapest way possible would be to buy an SPS and go from there with an aftermarket barrel, and have the action trued. However, you could always buy a Sendero and just have the action and barrel shoulder and threads trued for straightness and it should be a 1-holer if you get a good smith that knows his stuff. My smith knows how to make a "factory" Remington with a heavy barrel shoot. He trues the action and barrel, then beds everything into a good aftermarket stock, and then reinstalls them and somehow it shoots 1-hole groups. Just my opinions and experiences. [/QUOTE]
