I am hoping to get someone help who has been down this road before. I deiced that I want to start a new project and build me a precision rifle for the range/deer hunting and maybe some coyote hunting. I fell in love with how customizable savage arms can be and I am learning toward getting the Stevens model 200 in 30-06.
I have been doing alot of searching the past couple of day and I am having trouble getting a straight answer on aftermarket parts for the model 200. I read somewhere that aftermarket parts for 110 will fit just fine with no modding on a model 200, as long as the model 200 is staggered feed. Which if I remember right all the new models 200 being made are stagger feed. So I was just wanting to make sure that if I do buy for example this stock, or this bolt handle it will fit on the model 200.

The next question I am hoping to get an answer for is it possible to switch out a 30-06 barrel with a 25-06 barrel if I ever had the dire need too? If I remember right 30-06 is considered long action and 25-06 is considered short action. So I didn't know if they made kits that give you the ability to switch between long action and short action. I am sure I will have more questions down the line.
