Anyone own a Remington 597 .22 caliber - fishinfool - 01-30-2007

Is it a good gun or bad.I know they dont have the good accessories lie the 10/22 Ruger just want to know if you have one and if it fires reliably.

No its there new semi-auto,I'm looking at the .22 long rifle,they have different classes in this model,I'm going to get the 597,with the sinthetic stock.the cheapest one.it looks good but I have heard alot of different oppions on it,just wanted to see if any BFT guys had one and how they liked it.

I dont know anything about that model. However I have learned that with Semi autos that if you shoot cheap ammo in them, mainly the cheap stuff that has wax on them, they will gum up the action really fast. Make sure that you shoot quality ammo such as stingers etc. Will make a big diffrence.

yes,I agree,I always shot CCI Mini-Mags,They shoot very clean and have not had much trouble with them.
I have two semi-auto,marlins.

My dad has one of them. He likes it more than his Marlin 10/22! I've shot it and like it too. Both guns are nice. His is also the synthetic stock.
