Im in the market for a cheap .22 semi auto for mostly plinking and i found a stevens 87b at a local gun shop for $110. I been trying to get information on it but i can't find out anything about it.
thanks for any information on it at all!

The Stevens model 87 is the same gun as the Savage model 6 or the Springfield model 187. Shoots 22 long rifle, longs and shorts. If you lock the cross-bolt it makes it into a bolt action cause it cuts off the gas thats makes it cycle the next round. $110 ain't a bad price.

Oh ok thanks, does anyone know about reliability and accuracy? Because im choosing between this Stevens, or a Marlin model 60 or maybe a Savage 64

You can't find a more fun gun. Works fine and does not have any bad points. A well thought out design.
