As I mentioned in my intro post, I've recently acquired a Stevens 200 in .223. I don't know very much about it beyond this...
Short action I believe, bolt spacing appears to be 4.40"? It's a centerfeed with a blind magazine. Bolt release is on top if that will help answer my questions.
Which brings me to my purpose here...

I notice there seems to be quite a bit of interchangeability between different Savage/Stevens models, and was wondering exactly which models' stocks will fit this rifle?

Edit to add: I did try searching. If I missed what I'm looking for, please direct me to the relevant info. Thanks.

Stocks made for the current top bolt release short actions, 10, 11, 12, 14, 16, should fit it. These and your model 200 are all the same geometry, but with different finishes or material.

An Accustock probably won't. I think it needs it's own special recoil lug.

That's exactly what I was looking for, thank you.
Now to figure out what kind of stock to replace this crappy plastic one with...
I love Walnut. I love tacticool. I'm also a minimalist.
Really all I know for sure, is I'd like a pistol grip or thumbhole, and I can't stand laminates.
Got some soul searching to do. So many choices, so many styles, so many materials...
