Remington 700 VTR Varmint .308 Win Blued Bolt Action Rifle

A: it is not Pillar bedded from review "The stock on the VTR is the same stock that is found on the SPS Varmint rifle, but green instead of black, and they did make the inserts on the stock a rubberized material, which actually is a nice upgrade, but the stock is still injection molded and made of a fairly weak plastic and the barrel is not free floated as a result. It is fairly comfortable to shoot and the forearm is fairly wide and provides a stable enough shooting platform. It does have a Monte Carlo style cheekpiece, but it is not raised so it does not aide in bringing your eye in line with the scope like a normal raised Monte Carlo design does. Overall, like on the SPS Varmint, the stock is functional but nothing to write home about." http://www.snipercentral.com/remington-700-vtr/

A: It is not "Pillar Bedded" and the stock.....well it's a stock. I have a good friend in the Atlanta area that has a VTR, cool looking, but it's not the tack driver he wished for. Barrel may be stiffer because of the shape but I think the shape affects accuracy. As for the stock ...trash it ! Big Rem should be ???? for such a low end Tupperware stock on a fine rifle. He replaced his VTR stock with a McMillan A-3 and loves it. I don't think bedding the VTR will be worth the money because there just isn't much to work with. Just let us know how it goes however you decide.

A: Paul, that one person may have received a different color by mistake. This Remington UPC code is for a rifle with a Flat Dark Earth Stock with Hogue Grip Panels.
