Those specs make it look like a semi custom limited run.I'm looking at the specs and I don't see why this costs nearly double what a BDL or CDL costs??
I don't see MSRP on the RemArms site. Midway says List Price is $2140.00 and their price is $1650. Sportsman Warehouse is $1760 Palmetto State Armory $1990. GAG (My goto) doesn't have them.First I've heard of them. What is MSRP?
Isn't that trigger adjustable to only 3.5 pounds. If so, they should have put a more adjustable trigger in it. Some of your cost is the cerakote and barrel threading. I agree with the stock, those are niceThe stock is an AG composite which go for around $650. The trigger is a timney elite hunter which is $170. Its also cerakoted. Thats $1000 if you were to pay retail to have that done to your 700. If you go to the remington website and compare the alpha to another rem 700 they will list the starting msrp. They state that the starting msrp is $1126. I don't know what addons there are that add it up to $1800.

Well then buy one and give us a range report.I'd like to see this shot against my 700 VLS or even Model 70 Super Grade.
I bought the Model 70 Super Grade to test against a 700, 6 years ago and have never gotten around to that.Well then buy one and give us a range report.![]()
Then don't. And most would agree, if you're gonna spend that much, it wouldn't be on a Remington. It's already been explained some of the cost difference. If that's not what you want or need it's not worth the extra coin to you.I bought the Model 70 Super Grade to test against a 700, 6 years ago and have never gotten around to that.
Also…. I see no reason for this to have a price tag nearly double that of a BDL or CDL. I don't want to spend that much.
