[QUOTE="RonS, post: 1065304, member: 68613"] BTDT with the Remington SPS Varmint in .243. Out of the box it shot 2.5 MOA with factory cheap ammo. Spent 6 months developing loads and modifying the rifle to get it to shoot. Stock replaced and bedded. Trigger replaced. Bore lapped. Recrowned. Was able to get it down to ~1 MOA with some loads. Sent a nasty letter to Remington about how I wanted to use this rifle to test the strength of the sphincter muscles. They told me to send it to them. I did. They sent it back saying the lapped the bore with a 100 yard test target. Their target, 1.5 MOA. That rifle went down the road the next day. Remington seems to have serious quality problems coupled with an "I don't give a ****" attitude. Don't go there unless the only varmints you'll be hunting are horses and asses at a limit of 200 yards. [/QUOTE]
