allaroundhunter said:The Remington 700 SPS series have some of the worst stocks in factory rifles. I own one, and the first thing that I did was get a better stock.
If the SPS is the only Remington model you're considering and if you don't intend on replacing the factory stock, I'd go with the Tikka for sure.
Otherwise I can happily recommend Remington 700's equipped with the HS Precision stock. I have one myself and compared to the stock on my friends SPS it's far superior.
