I was going to get a 10/22 for plinking and came across a deal at 21st Century.
Anyhow I chose the Bull Barrel 597 because I like the feel of it better. I was hoping it shot well and after a few hours at the range I feel it did very well.
Anyhow, after some sighting in after a home bore sight job which left me high and left, I was in better shape.
I did it all at 50 yards. I have a cheap 3x9X40 BSA scope on her.
So after reading a lot about the 10/22 and the 597, I have a few things to say. The rifle did not jam much, especially with the MkIII magazine. The 30 round magazine from Remington also did well (that is the center of the target). I used Fed bulk ammo.
I am VERY pleased with this rifle and I will shoot better when it is not 28 degrees and my toes are hurting
Any comments from INGO members on the Remington 597?
