[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2502646, member: 807"] Pulp, I have owned several 223 bolt guns over the years, and the one I have now is the one I like best. A stevens 200 without accutrigger. It is the older stevens with the 3 screw trigger and at 180 measured yards I can ring the top 2" portion of a T post 9 out of 10 times from a rest. The newer Stevens 200's trigger is crap, and a good replacement trigger for the new one is about $120.00. Rebarreling and changing caliber on Savage 10/110 type actions is really easy. I think I have done about 8 in the past year. The latest was a Savage 111 in 30-06 that I converted to 458 win mag. Old style trigger, had to change the bolt head, firing pin, add a new ejector and extractor. All the parts except the barrel came from Midway. If you watch the various gun forums, you can pick up parts pretty reasonably when someone does a caliber change and doesn't hoard the parts like I do in anticipation of another build... [/QUOTE]
