Rem. 700?

Thanks for the answers!

But, you see, I'm from Sweden and in Sweden a Rem. 700 VS cost about $1200 and a VS Composite is $2600, so it is a bit exspensive I think.
But maybe a VS is affordable.

I want the cheapest Rem. 700 with a heavy barrel...
So you say all Rem. 700 have heavy barrels?

thanks for the answers!

But I still have got some questions, why is the 700 VS Composite almost twice as exspensive as the 700 VS?

Btw, I think the 700 VS seems as a very nice rifle. But do it also have a
HS precision stock as the 700P? And is it fully aluminium bedded?

And if I do buy this rifle, what scope do you think I should get?

Sorry, forgot to mention

I will be using it alot on the shooting range (but it's mostly just 300 meters ranges around here) and for a little bit of hunting of course, however I don't like hunting like elk, so from the scope point of view I don't need a low magnification in the bottom. I have looked at the Leupold Mark 4 LR/T M3 10X which seems as a very nice scope (which it is) :wink: .

So in the end I think it will be: (note that the US$ prices is just transformed from Swedish kronor.)

Remington 700 VS (.308W) $1400 US (11 000 Swedish kronor)
Leupold Mark 4 LR/T M3 10X $1950 US (15 000 Swedish kronor)

+ maybe Harris bipod, sling etc.
