Never even seen the rifle but I sure like the round. Are you shooting reloads or factory ammo? Good luck! "If a man buys a rifle at a gun show and his wife doesn't know it"...Did he really buy a rifle? Firearm Philosophy 101. montdoug | |||

Good choice in a budget rifle... you may or may not like the trigger, but beyond that, you should enjoy its accuracy! and utility...

[QUOTE]Dose any one ealse on here have a Stevens 200?? Yes I have 4if so how is it shooting ??Once you rework the trigger they are OK. They make a good walk around hunting rifleQUOTE] They do require more cleaning than I like. roger Old age is a high price to pay for maturity!!! Some never pay and some pay and never reap the reward.

Below is a good 120 gr load I use with my rem 7/08,may work great in your savage.I use either the hornady,HP or sp and the 120 BT. This is 1 1/2 gr over book so work up to it if you try it. Dropped a 10 point at 100 yards and a doe at 140 yds this season,both went straight down was trying the HP. | |||
