Hey all,
I am planning to buy a Remington 700 SPS Tactical (remington 700 SPS Tactical), but have heard a lot of stories about issues and "acceptable" (from Remington's point of view) defects in the manufacturing process that decrease accuracy and aren't covered by Remington's warranty such as ridges in the barrel that strip part of the bullet's copper jacket off, extraction difficulties due to faulty extractors, misaligned scope mount holes, etc. If anybody knows what I can look at exactly to see any warning signs please let me know what to check and what looks right and what looks wrong.
Basically what things would you look at in particular at the store before buying and warnings signs can I see?
Thank you!
