Default Remingtno 700 attachments

I just recently purchased the Remington 700 SPS. And Im just curious as to opinions on what well made/ affordable price bipod and scope would best fit this beauty?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Anthony

I bought a couple of the UTG bipods for around $30 apiece from Amazon I think it was and for the price I have no complaints at all. I would recommend saving money there and putting it toward the scope.

I agree with fuzebox on saving the money to go with good optics and Harris makes
some good bipods as well that are affordable.

You'll be pleased with the SPS. Harris is a good choice for a bipod. I have a KONUS M30 6.5-24 scope. Excellent glass, very sharp. A Wyatts detachable magazine system replaces the bottom metal. The stock has been replaced with a Bell and Carlson.

maybe I can get some expert advice here too lol. I just recently got a remington 700 in .308, also the SPS tactical what is a good magazine conversion kit for a good price. As of right now mine is equipped with the trap door floor plate and internal 3 rnd mag, I'm looking to a detachable box mag.

I can't remember where I got the Wyatts system. It was a drop in with the B&C stock. With the original Hogue stock it took a minute with a Dremel to make it work.
