I did the same thing with a stevens 200 in .223 and love it.
I put on a sharpshooter supply trigger, rebarrel with a 17" pacnor stainless supermatch 1 in 6.5" twist, and a supersniper 10x scope. I still have the plastic stock which I dremelled out for the larger 1.055" barrel contour. I may change it out later or maybe not. I haven't had a chance to shoot it a whole lot yet due to work, travel, and getting ready to move but so far it looks really promising. Out of 6 different loads shot so far at about 50 yds it puts 10 rounds from each load through the same quarter size jagged hole. I am really looking forward to getting settled after my move and seeing what it will do at a couple hundred yards.
As a side note on the stevens 200, my brother has one in .223 that shoots very well out as far as 500 and 600 yards (as far as his scope will let him).
