Remington 700 SPS Tactical - Zombie Survival & Defense Wiki

. I've had this rifle for a few months now. I can't say enough good things about it. It is extremely accurate! I can consistently pull one inch three shot groups at 100 yards. Every now and then it will shoot a half inch group at 100 yards. The stock has a great feel to it, and the grip fits my hand nicely. I installed a Harris bipod and a Center-Point 4-16 power mil-dot scope (not the best, but it works). The scope was only $70, but it has surprisingly enough still held it's zero.
. The twist of the barrel is one turn in nine inches, and is 20 inches long. This rifle is chambered in .223 Remington. I have been shooting ammo that I have loaded myself. It consists of: 62 grain FMJBT bullets, 25.5 grains of IMR 4320 powder, LC 5.56mm brass, and CCI #41 primers.
. The internal magazine holds 5 rounds, and it is not detachable. I haven't researched it yet, but I believe I can install a detachable magazine with the proper parts. It's very easy to load with the bolt open, just push the shells down into the internal magazine and they pop right in.
. This rifle has shot about 200 rounds and has had no issues. The trigger is supposed to be adjustable but I haven't tried messing with it. It seemed fine out of the box, probably at 6 pounds or so.
. It could use one more sling stud at the front of the stock. As it is now I would have to run the sling through the bipod.


I am going to give this rifle 4 out of 5 zombie heads. I love everything about it, but I am taking off one zombie head for not having a detachable magazine.Zombie HeadZombie HeadZombie HeadZombie HeadX


Scope adjustments:

The turrets are resettable to 0. This lets you zero the scope, and you can make any windage or range adjustments you want. Then, you can always reset it back to 0 when you are done. each "number" on the turrets is one MOA. So, if I was shooting at 300 yards and I wanted to raise the point of impact 6 inches then I would set the scope to "2" on the elevation setting.
