The 700 SPS Tactical Coyote Tan is a bolt-action rifle chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor, fitted with a 22-inch heavy carbon steel barrel, a fixed Hogue pillar-bedded overmolded stock, and an X-Mark Pro trigger. The threaded muzzle with muzzle brake and the Coyote Tan barrel finish distinguish it from the standard SPS Tactical lineup.

Detailed Features
The Hogue pillar-bedded overmolded stock provides a stable, weather-resistant platform with a grip texture that holds up in cold or wet conditions. Pillar bedding adds consistency compared to a plain synthetic stock. The action screws torque against aluminum pillars rather than compressing the stock material over time. The X-Mark Pro trigger breaks cleanly and is adjustable for pull weight. The 22-inch barrel balances velocity against handling length, and the 1:8" twist stabilizes heavier 6.5mm projectiles well. The muzzle brake on the threaded barrel takes the edge off the already-mild 6.5 Creedmoor recoil.
Target Audience
This fits precision rifle shooters competing in long-range matches and hunters who want a flat-shooting, low-recoil cartridge in a durable factory package. At 7.5 lb it's also manageable in the field compared to heavier competition builds.
