Remington 700 VTR in 22-250

[Canada55]

Hey guys, was wondering if anybody owns one of the VTR's and what you think about it. I have seen plenty of reviews online but how much can you really trust a review that the guy shot once out of the box at the range? So hopefully some of you have it and have done some extensive shooting and can let me know what you like/don't like about the rifle.

Cheers and thanks in advance,

J

I have one I just bought this summer...have not played with it to much (also have one in 308 win) but from the little bit of load development I have done...I find I am getting about 100 fps less velocity then the books say I should be in over my Chrony in the couple of bullet weights powder combos I have tried...I guess this is from the shorter barrel on the VTR...even thou it looks like it is 22' long in reality it is a 20'" barrel.. Other then this the rifle is fairly accurate and I am sure this will only get better as I play with my reloads and find its sweet spot. It is nice to carry and fits me quite well and points nicely so over-all I am pretty happy with it.
