This was my first build. It started life as a bone stock Stevens 200 in .223 that my grandfather left to me when he passed. I knew I would never sell the gun and I had no use for the .223 so I decided to make something unique out of it.
Bison Gun Works spun me a barrel chambered in 6.8 SPC II. It is 16.5 inches long and about a medium varmint contour.
Ordered a walnut stock from Boyd's that turned out to be super nice. I find these Boyd's stocks to be a great value.
Sent the bolt head over to MCA to be machined out to fit the 6.8 cartridge. It took just a little bit of work with a file to get reliable extraction when I got it back.
There are a few other niceties from different places like the stainless trigger guard.
It is topped with a Nikon Prostaff 2-7x32 that I picked up on clearance.
Really like this rifle although I don't have any real use for it. It's just something unique to keep around and show off.
