Buying an NEF 223...which one?
 

I'm leaning toward the Survivor, but just because I like the way it looks.:) The standard Handi Rifle would be the same gun but for the stock, but it would save me a few bucks. What do you think?

I like the varmit rifle with the bull barrel .I have it in a .243 and love it . very good accuracy . Only problem with the rifle is the ejector sticks every now and ten but for $200.00 how can you complain.

Dan...Mine stuck too when I first got it. I changed to Black Hills ammo, and I make sure to clean the junk out of the ejector...and have not had one problem since.

I thoroughly enjoy my Handi-Rifle.

I keep mine clean but I use hornaday rounds and my reloads .It really isnt that bad but the first time it happened I had a hard time getting it out with my cleaning rod.

I had a handi rifle in 30-06, should have never sold it. I want another one, but not sure what caliber to get. I noticed on their website the other day that they are chambering them in the .204 ruger that may be the one i get. I am also leaning toward the 25-06 or 7mm-08. For the money they are hard to beat, they come up and point so easy. I highly recommend one.

I just went to Wally World, and they can order the NEF Survivor in .223 for $199.95. I guess I'm going to go for it. It's only $15 more than the Handi Rifle, and it comes with a strap.

I GOT IT!!!!

Man, is it cool!:)

For another 100 bucks you could have a Savage Varmint Model 40 its a single shot bolt action chambered for .223 and is way more accurate then any NEF single shot. I have one and shoot Federal premium 55 grain Sierra BTHP Gamekings and get sub MOA groups at 200 yards I will put a stiff wager against any NEF single shot that it will not shoot that good.

mine does that all time

I've surfed some NEF discussion boards, and guys realy boast about their gun's performance. I don't think I'll be sorry. Plus, by next season, I should have a 12 g turkey barrel, .270, and a 30-06 barrels, and maybe for kicks, a 50 cal ML barrel for it too. All for under $400!
