I'm planning on buying one soon and I have a few questions. I know that the chances of getting a new older model with the 4.2'' spacing and staggered feed anywhere isn't very good at all. How much work is going to need to be done to get my Stevens 200 into an older Savage 11 or 16 stock with the old spacing? I can get a couple very nice short action Savage stocks from Numrich's at some very reasonable prices. I guess I could just get the Stevens in .223 caliber but I'd really like to think outside the box and use the 22-250 instead.
