A Baikal would be a good choice, however you need an adapter rail like this to fit a weaver mount to them.
The chrome bore will survive a barrel chop and recrown no problems.
I own two Baikals, a .222 and a .223 both shoot well, the triggers are not flash but they are not as crappy as most people make them out to be.
I've taken Goats out to 150m so far with both of them.
BTW I Paid $300 each including the scope mounts and 3-9x40 scopes. Check out Trade Me or advertise on the Forum.
Cheers
Pete
