Title: Look Out Varmints
Post by: Antlershed on February 19, 2008, 03:40:36 PM: Picked this up today from work. Remington 700 VTR in .223. On sale this week, plus it comes with free Leupold rings and bases. Now I just gotta figure out what glass to put on it. :drool:

Right now we only have the .223 and .308 on sale. We don't normally carry the .22-250 but can usually get it direct from Remington.
