they are a nice rifle I have shot them and they will do the job.

I don't know about the shooting qualities of them...but they are tres chic! I want one...even though I have no use for it really. The triangular barrel is just plain cool looking, and I have a weakness for OD Green. LOL I wouldn't have to spray paint that rifle!

I shot the 308 Winchester version and it would group about 3/4 inch I just did not like the look of the rifle, it is plain ugly I think but it is functional

Yea I didnt really like it at first only seeing it on the computer and in magizines but when I got a hold of one at the gunshop I changed my mind it seems very balanced and light I think it would be an awesome walking varmit rifle just as long as it will shoot the one Iam getting it 308 so it should

LMAO...aint it funny how opinions vary? I think they are cool looking...and you think they are fugly. LOL I guess that's why they make so many models and makes of firearms.

haha i was planning on getting that too cause of the cool looking triangular barrel and the muzzle break (which does not reduce recoil * and it doesnt matter anyway cause .223 barely has any recoil anyway) . well i did some research and found out that the other 700 SPS Varmint is more accurate and 200 bucks cheaper. i decided on the sps and then waste the "rest" of the money on a good scope. iv'e been coyote hunting for a year now with my 30-06 (didnt keep the fur) but now that its getting into winter again i wanted to keep the thicker pelts so decided on a .223 cause the 30-06 just ripped baseball sized holes in the exit holes which i didnt mind cause i didnt want the pelts. but now i do. well anyway i would recomend the 700 sps. plus with the vtr the muzzle break is not part of the barrel so that takes off 2 inches off the barrel . i would rather get a longer barrel.

ive been wanting to get one in .204. i shot my buddys .308 vtr when he first got it last year. i liked it a lot. its feels good to hold and is pretty light, but its loud with that muzzle break. u definitely need ear protection for it.
