I ment to say the 220 B was my fovorite shotgun, not (200 B) The 220 B is the same receiver and "look" as the 219 B. I have two of them in my safe now. Since reading this thread I started looking again for a 219B. I found one again in 30-30 but in poor shape. I think the 219 B was way ahead of its time.

i picked up a 219 in 25-20 a few months back.  yesterday, i bought another in 218bee with a 12g barrel as well !  they won't arrive for a few days as coming from interstate, but i'm hoping the bee will shoot as well as the 25  Cheesy


i love these little things.  they seem to shoot a lot better than they have any right to.

I have recently seen two of them. One in 22 hornet, the other in 30-30, butthey were both just beat to death. One of them was being advertised as a parts gun. What a waste! I'll just have to keep an eye out for one at a good price. Good luck on your new purchase Saladin.

I was waiting to see if someone mentioned the .32-20. That may be the best caliber of the bunch. I thought i had a full set until now. I had never heard of a 30-40 before. My .32-20 has a Tinite stock and forearm. They are great little rifles.

Savage also made a 219 in 45-70, That would be a hand-full .

I had collected these a while back. Never saw any reference to a .45-70 anywhere. This does not mean they did not make any though. I talked to a guy that had one in .22LR that was never listed either. Think I would rather shoot the .22 than the .45-70! I at one time had a .22 Hornet, a .30-30, a rechamber to .22 K-Hornet, and a rechamber to .219 Zipper. Never could find a .25-20 or .32-20. Eventyualy sold all but the .22 Hornet and reinvested in Stevens singleshots.

Rowe Clark had told me about the 45-70 as a R&D gun along with the 30-40 as being a R&D also. I had sold my 25-20 awhile back. I could never come up with the 32-20.
