Essentially, what it appears to be is that Remington took the LTR fluting and continued the flute all the way out, making the barrel a triangle. But the one thing this rifle does have that is different, is the very unique barrel profile and integrated muzzlebrake.Īs you can see in the photo above and below, the profile of the barrel is not a round profile like a typical rifle barrel, but is triangulated. This rifle is about the same weight as those two and fits in-between in price. It is a lightweight and compact rifle design, but the last time I checked, Remington was quite successful with the 700LTR rifles as well as their extremely popular, and good performing, SPS Tactical rifle introduced last year. To me, I’m not really sure who the target customer is for this rifle, beyond the tacti-cool crowd. But, there are some things that are different that makes this review worth doing. There is not a whole bunch to talk about in regards to the 700 action that we have not covered in all the other Remington 700 tactical rifles and custom built rifle reviews we have done. Yes, here is another Remington 700 with the same action as on all the other Remington 700’s we have reviewed. This particular rifle has a few new twists to make it unique and we ordered one in to test these new twists and see just what kind of a tactical rifle the VTR is.
One of the new ones this year is the Remington 700 VTR, or Varmint-Tactical Rifle. Of all the rifle makers out there, Remington seems to be the one taking the most advantage of the tactical rifle popularity by introducing a couple of new tactical rifles just about every year. Well, here we are, another new year, and another few new tactical models introduced by Remington. Stock: Injection Molded Plastic with rubberized inserts.Barrel: Remington Factory Heavy Contour, triangulated w/muzzlebrake.
