Petersens Hunting just had an article about them, but it was about the shotguns. They gave them a favorable review considering they were priced to be affordable

My brother has one of the shotguns, he seems to think it is a pretty good gun. His son hunts with it, so it gets limited use as our family seems to hunt more with rifles than shotguns.

I looked at a Spartan O/U shotgun the other day, and it did look like a decent shotgun for a cheapo price.

Years ago a ducking hunting friend of mine bought a Bakial shotgun, and he shot it loose in around 500 rounds, so who knows for sure how good they are???

I am kind of a strange situation, I want another rifle, but I cant afford the price of a nice bolt. You hear alot of guys on this site saying that stuff like sako is all there is to consider. That is cool, but I aint got thier kind of money. I am 30 and got married six months ago. $400 bucks for another rifle isnt gonna happen. Now, If I could find an accureate rifle (243 or 270) for around 200? I could deal with it. I suppose the only way to find out is to just spend it and get one.
I am convinced that being young and poor helps you to appreciate your 40's when you can actually afford the nice things you wanted in your youth. EJ

NEF? I am guessing that is new england firearms, I need to get more familiar with this stuff. Can you get a NEF single for around 200? Where do they sell these things? EJ

Have you considered a used rifle? Most gun shops around here let you test fire them also so you can see for yourself if it is up to snuff,

You should be able to find a good used Rem 700, Savage or Winchester rifle in that price range. Rifles rarely wear out - buy a used one.
