Bankwalker, Saturday I bough a Tikka 22-250 T3 lite black on black.  $459 at sportsmans with an additional 5% off.  Then I top it off with the Leupold VLS cut face varmit recticle scope.  4.5-14X50.  Hogsniper and I went and sited it in on Sunday pretty dang accurate.  Another sweet gun is the Remington Kevlar stock Fluted stainless barell, but it was somewhere around $700.00, really liked it though.  Good luck on your search, I post a picure of it later.

I'm thinking about picking up the Rem 700 SPS Varmint in .223 tomorrow. It is on sale plus it has a $30 rebate on it right now.

I just picked up a 22 hornet and a 22-250. the hornet is a ruger model 77/22 laminate w/ target grey varmint barrel. the 22-250 is the model 700 vls. Stainless steel with black and grey laminate stock. Remington only made 400 of them in 2003. Got them both off of gunbroker.com for a very good price.

I would love to have one of the uber cool fluted barrel Remington varmint rifles, but I just can't afford one. For the price, I think the SPS Varmint should be a great gun.

oh yeah i've played with it in the stores a bit. i use to own 2 sps's when they first came out. and they are great guns. i didnt like the synthetic stocks though. to noisy for my liking so i got rid of them. but as a varmint gun they will work perfectly sence they wont be hitting against brush and stuff like that.

plsu that price with the rebate is a good deal.

um im not to sure yet. i think the cheapest i seen that gun was at sportsmans in federal way...

i never really looked to closely at the prices. i know they are cheap though. my sps's when i baught them knew were well under $600 after taxes. i baught the first one from bulleyes in tacoma, and the second from sportsco in fife.
