Stevens 334 Walnut - VERY IMPRESSED

[@scottharrison5942]

The budget reviews are great! Some of us can't afford carbo fibers and mucho glasses, it's refreshing to see when a small purchase can yield great groups

Hopefully Stevens will expand on there caliber selections....

Such beautiful wood furniture! Its sad that we see less and less wood stock options these days. Amazing that this one is coming in at such an affordable price!

[@AllAboutSurvival]

the matte black synthetic stock with a matte black action appeals to the tactical side of me, while the Turkish Walnut stock with a silver bolt brings a touch of elegance.

[@gmanthedsftw2672]

From what I've heard the synthetic stocks bolt is not as smooth as the stainless bolt here

[@Christ42]

@@gmanthedsftw2672 your absolutely correct I own both and the stainless definitely rides a lot smoother out of the box. When cleaned treated and used it does get a lot better. What I like to call a break in period. Needless to say the 334 has out shown some of my rifles at 3x the price

One of my buddies has the same make, model and caliber rifle and since he used to exclusively advocate hunting with the 6.5x55 Swede I thoroughly enjoy teasing him about his 6.5 "Costmore."

[@chadperry4021]

Hard to tease about a gun that shoots like that.

[@2017Toy]

Why in the world would people wanna spend any more money than what this rifle cost? This gun is excellent. I shoot a Savage 110 6.5 Creedmoor now excellent rifle great review as always.

[@barbjamison]

I just bought the walnut version and took it to the range on Friday. I had visually bore-sighted the rig the day before and was on paper with the first shot at 50 yds. Just to check I shot another with the same POA and drilled the first one! After two quick adjustments and two more shots I was in the 1" circle. I switched to a splatter target and put 3 in the heart and 3 in the forehead. Wow! Just for fun I tossed one at 100 yds and it was 1.25" high (exactly where my ballistics calculator predicted). Can't wait to zero it at 100 yds on Tuesday. What an incredibly accurate rifle!!

[@crankygunreviews]

Inexpensive, beautiful, and accurate? Sounds like a winner to me!

[@brentanderson4304]

An interesting and surprising video to watch. The walnut is beautiful and the heavier barrel surprised me. What was interesting was the group you shot even with the heavy trigger.

[@russellk6415]

I have a 243 xpr and a Winchester model 100 308, so I bought the stevens in 6.5. Most beautiful wood I've ever owned. It's also a tack driver. Very impressive rifle. Be blessed 🙌

[@michaelfregoe5875]

About the Winchester 100 .308. I just returned from the range with one. It shot 2.4" at 100 yards with a cold barrel and 180 grain core-lokt. At 200 the group opened to 7". With extensive, and I mean extensive testing, tuning and shooting 4 different model 100's that's pretty decent for those rifles. They are an attractive, sleek looking traditional rifle that shoot decent for the era they were manufactured. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine.

[@russellk6415]

@michaelfregoe5875 I love my model 100. I inherited it from my dad years ago. It eats 150 grain Hornady sst's. 1"- 1 1/2" at 100 yards. For a rile made in 1962, it still impresses me. Be blessed 🙌

[@michaelfregoe5875]

@@russellk6415 I'll try the 150 grain SST's and get back to you.

[@russellk6415]

@michaelfregoe5875 I am always shooting each of my rifles with different brands and bullet weights. I know which bullets I like, but each rifle will tell me what it likes. Just do a little experimenting.

[@michaelfregoe5875]

@russellk6415 I've tried just about everything available. In 4 different model 100's. From 110 grain to 180. The tension on the forward take down screw noticeably and consistently affects accuracy.

[@michaelpeterson114]

I have a walnut 334 in .308. I was able to lighten the trigger up quite a bit but I had to take the gun out of the stock. Then there is a screw on the trigger for adjustment. I know many said that screw was glued in place but mine was not. Great video!

[@WHOTEEWHO]

Awesome

[@Christ42]

Same here no glue fantastic shooting rifle. Best shooting budget rifle on the market today

[@Plumcraziness]

From all initial reports I have read, it seems these rifles really shoot. So impressive. Not just "for the money" either. Looks like you won the wood lottery with that one though. On a side note: the wood stock version of the 334 has a better running bolt from what I have heard so far. It has a stainless steel bolt, but for whatever reason the synthetic stock version has a bolt with a black coating that doesn't run as smooth, apparently. I know the 334 is just a rebadged Turkish ATA Arms Turqua, but I don't know why Savage would allow two different bolt finishes in what is virtually the same rifle. Regardless, it seems the wood stock version is the way to go. Anyway, great video as always, Adam! I'll be looking forward to the many videos on this one to come!

[@gragrn]

That's a beautiful piece of wood, worthy of a rifle that shoots that good!

It never ceases to amaze me how accurate the tried, and true Remington core-lokt ammo is from so many different rifles, and in so many different chamberings. It is accurate, inexpensive, and it puts the deer down.

[@charleshenson4183]

Absolutely. It's my ammo of choice by far.

[@Yelladog78]

Took mine out today, best group I got was 1" with AAC sabre black tip. Tried Winchester deer season xp 125gr Winchester power points 129gr & Federal 140gr power shoks. Everything but the AAC was above an inch. The win. Power points were almost 2 inches

[@vomact1052]

That is a really beautiful rifle. It is a unique action and paired with the walnut stock it is a gun anyone would be proud to own. As an old-timer I appreciate a nice piece of walnut and the example you have here looks first rate. The checkering looks well done as well. I have looked at a lot of 334 images online and the walnut figure and checkering on all of them looks superb. If it shoots then IMHO it is an outrageous value.

Got one in black synthetic & slapped a Whiskey3 4-12x40 on her. “Esther” also came in sub MOA with factory Hornady Whitetail rounds. Got some Winchester copper I’ve yet to run so no data yet for me with monolithics. All in all sharp little 6.5.

Wow, I'm watching your views-counter tick over like the odometer on a superbike doing triple double-nickles! Many of us anxious for this video. What a shooter! What a video! Lusting here......🎯

[@MadGreek-y9y]

I now have 3 of these: 2 Stevens 334s in .308 and 6.5cm and an ATA in .308 with a 18.5” barrel. All shoot sub-MOA groups with factory ammo - the .308 shoots 5/8” groups with Normal 150gr, the 6.5cm shoots sub-1/2” groups with Fed Berger Hybrids and Win Match, and the ATA .308 shoots .3” groups with Fed Premium Match ammo. For the money, these are great rifles. However, the triggers on the Stevens 334s hav been modified by Savage and cannot be adjusted like the ATA trigger can be thru the trigger guard with a long hex wrench. I called Savage and they said “blah blah” “lawyers” basically. The Stevens factory triggers are around 6lbs and suck - but you can carefully adjust them via the screw on the trigger face - manual says not to do this because you can disable the safety if you lighten it too much (I discovered this). Best I could do was 4lbs without the safety being disabled or the firing pin dropping uncommanded. Once you find the sweet spot, they are safe and function a lot better. The ATA (from Buds) however adjusts as the factory intended and it’s now a crisp 3lbs. Regardless, these are a great value in a rifle with a beautiful wood stock. Let’s hope Savage/Stevens stop mangling the triggers in the 334 and sell them as designed by ATA.

The hole in the trigger guard is for the Turqua that does have an adjustable trigger, for some reason Stevens froze the adjustment screws to adjust the trigger in these models, guys are breaking the triggers on these guns trying to adjust them, probably a good idea to leave the trigger alone.

[@michaelwhisman345]

[@AllThingsLoud_]

I have one in .243 with syn stock that I just got back from taking to range. 100 gr rem core lokt did 3/4” groups. Powershok 100 gr did 1 3/16” and winchester 80 gr did 1 1/4”. I’m happy with that because I know I’m not the best shot but with dry fire and working on my breathing and trigger press I did pretty good

[@dyouden]

My Stevens 334 puts federal power shok 140’s into half an inch. I’ve been told they are the fusion bullet so glad my rifle likes them

I would mark the boxes which rifle now that brass is formed th chamber, you can expect better groups if you cutt down the bullet jump to the rifling. Im sure you already know more about this then me, I started reloading because ammo cost for 300wby mag was really expensive
