This is my first post and finally got around to registering, this is a great forum with loads of rich info.
I was in the market for a 308, but something that i can easily experiment with modifications so i went with the model 200, i ordered it through buds, and got it within a week, great site.
heres what the 200 when i got it, i had a scope so i pretty much put it on as soon as i took it out of the box (bushnell 6-18x50mm)
and then my lack of patience resulted in smacking on a bi pod and strap by the end of the day lol
with just a few minor adjustments the model 200 can be a great contender at the range.
here are some quick photos of other rifles i have in the collection.
This is my #1 hunting rifle. Given to me by my grandfather at my birth haha it means a lot to me. The rifle is a ruger m77 (.243). One hell of straight shot.
here is the model 200 with my buddies new armalite .308, the muzzle brake and heavy weight of the armalite makes this thing kick free and scary accurate. we were also doing some reloading, we were reloading 308 with some brand new lapua brass, that day we were making 168gr next were gona make some 175gr rounds.
this is one of my favorite 22s. The Winchester 22lr, many holes have been punched.
At the range the other day w/ my friends armalite 308 and my m77 243
Heres what id use for some long range hunting. The 700 in 300 win mag. Have not gotten a chance to fire this one yet. Brand new just like the savage.
back to my original topic, the model 200, i plan to throw on a medalist tactical stock. i plan to mess with the trigger in a couple of days, id like to try and get a nice pull before i jump the gun and get an aftermarket trigger. Any recommendations for barrels? I was looking at what they had on sharpshooter supply and was extremely interested. Id like to look at some possible bull barrel options?
thanks for any help guys and i look foward to learning a lot more now being active with the forum!
