Thanks for all the recent posts.

Thought I should let you all know... I went to one of the sportsman's warehouse stores here in Colorado just to look around... they had a few of the Remington 700 SPS Tactical AAC-SD's in stock... I looked a couple of them over. I got to dry fire one of them (but not the other, I had two guys helping me at the counter) And I really liked the trigger... Sooooo, I decided to just go for it.

It's gona be a while before I can shoot it though. I need to get a rail and rings, as well as ammo, and figure out some stuff with the scope I have.

Not only that... but here in Colorado, the wait for background checks is up to 13,000 people long!!! They figgure it might take about 2 weeks for my background check to go through. Heck, I remember buying a firearm a while ago, and I was like 2nd in line at the time, and it took about 5 min for my background check to clear.... now there are 13,000 background checks ahead of in Colorado.

That Obama... He is quite the salesman... I hope he and his friends realize that there are no returns on firearms or ammunition

Thanks for all the posts folks!

I just ordered a Bushnell Elite 3200 10x 40m. I'll let you know how I like it. What scopes are you looking at?

You can't go wrong with the Remington 700 SPS Tactical, especially given the possibility of upgrading the stock. Although you have already made the purchase, another option would have been the 700P (Police) LTR. They are hard to find. You can look at the specs on the Remingtonle (law enforcement) web site.
