Just ordered a stevens 200 in .223. Plastic gray stock blue works ,$305.00 in my hand. Will be in on tuesday. Then i can start coyote hunting on the lease with something that don't blow them up or cost so much to shoot.
Let us know how you do with it. My .223 Stevens 200 didn't stay that way for long. Kind of glad I didn't shoot it first, it may have stayed a .223. My only real complaint was the trigger and I replaced that as well.
I will more than likely work the trigger a bit and see if i can improve it. I have to other centerfire rifles and one has a timmney at 2lbs and the other is a worked 788 at 2 1/4lbs. Just hope i get one that breaks in well as a shooter. With the weather we have been have'n it may be this next week end before getting to try it out.
