Are you talking about the Rem 770 / 710 junk? If so, then well, reread the first sentence.
The Stevens 200 is a solid gun, that gives up nothing in the way of construction. And being based on the Savage 10/110 design, if you like it, you can change everything on it; stock, barrel, trigger, bolt handle etc. All available off the shelf.
I'd get a Stevens 200 long before getting a 770 / 710 (or the cheaper Mossberg they've always got on sale).
