The Remington 700 SPS Varmint in .22-250 Remington features a heavy 26-inch barrel for reduced muzzle blast and improved sustained-fire accuracy during extended varmint sessions. The varmint-weight barrel takes longer to heat than a sporter barrel, maintaining point of impact through multiple shots on prairie dog towns. The SPS Varmint's flat black finish and heavy barrel create a practical working varmint rifle at an accessible price. The .22-250 delivers explosive terminal performance on varmints to 400 yards.
