Remington VS SF II Questions

Post by FireBallGuy »

Does any one out there own one of these guns? Have had my heart set on one for a long time but I am having a hard time deciding. It is a little pricey, has a great stock and an iffy trigger. Owned a savage FVSS and loved it, most accurate gun I have ever shot but it has it's shortfalls as well. Internal magazine, crappy stock but the darn thing sure did shoot. Any comments out there?

I have one in a 22-250. It is very very accurate. I put a rifle basix in it and it is an awesome rifle.

Have you tried varget and benchmark in the gun? What is your definition of very, very accurate? 22-250 is going to be my pick as well. Thanks for your input.

No benchmark, but the varget works well with the 52gr. berger. It has shot a 4 shot group in about .15 and several under .5". I think it is 36 gr. of varget, but that is near max so I would work up to it if you try it.

Thought so, my savage loved a max charge of varget under a 40 gr sierra hollowpoint. Cool, thanks verminator.
