Helluva deal right there. Got my Stevens for 300 a couple years ago. The biggest difference is this axis you can add the accutrigger.
I don't know what the accutrigger is all about but mine doesn't have it and does just fine. I can set the trigger down to 3.5lb pull.
Not sure about when it expires Steve, I have the flyer too my buddy too look at.... He's itching too go up and wanted me too go as well... I passed lol
For that price it'll be a good truck gun in my opinion....
I have a Savage with the accutrigger and one without. I'd be hard pressed to buy another one without it.

At $150 I am thinking I may try to pick one up in .223. Certainly wouldnt feel about about shootimg cheap ammo in it. If they don't have that, .243 or .22-250? Thinking truck gun for ghogs and yotes. Not really something I do much of to begin with but would fill the small caliber want.
I'm partial too the .243 in 58 grain vmax bullets.... I've got the ruger model 77 and a 2" group @200 yards I'm very happy with....

Cheap. Super cheap. I have 17hmr with Accutrigger. I have Savage Edge (Axis predecessor before Ford MoCo put the nix on the common name) without Accutrigger. It is in 22-250. Very nice gun. It was ringing the gong at 200yds even with factory trigger. You could always have trigger work done if you didn't like the standard trigger. For the price. . . Seems like there is room for some custom work and a higher end scope. I won't bash the one that comes with it as I am not familiar with it. I doubt it is a high dollar scope though.
I was never a fan of scoped guns like that.... Get the bare gun and add your own scope.... Do your homework and pick out a good scope and a solid base and set of rings....
