man i just bought a 200 stevens in 22-250 and its more then i expected. for the price i paid for it $400 its as accurate as any other rifle i own. well worth the money. only thing that i dont like is you have to rack every shell back into the chamber to eject them out once its loaded. theres no floorplate in them. o'well for $400 i think i can handle that.my advise to you is if your on a tight budget this rifle is all you need.besides when did looks ever matter to a animal.

You probally don't have to chamber them, just bump them out of the well with the bolt and hold the rifle with the bolt side down. They should fall out.

yes i suppose you could do that also. i didnt even think of that at all.
