When are we going to see someone start offering drop in barrels, stocks and other modified parts for 597's like we have for the 10/22? Maybe they're out there already and I just missed them. GHD

    I have both 22LR and 22Mag. Both have been reliable as far as functioning with the exception of one box of Remington ammo in the Mag. I sent the rest of the box back to Remington and got a nice little letter and a cap and a keychain!! They had a bad lot and they really want to know when there is a problem. As far as accuracy goes I'm more impressed with the Magnum. It's not quite up there with the 882 or 883 Marlins that I've shot but overall is acceptable. I would not hesitate to drop a 17HRM barrel it though if it was available!! The 22LR is just plain fun and inexpensive to shoot!! It's easy for the smaller kids to handle to learn with. GHD

    Or else just swing by Mr. Volquartsen's place in Iowa. He IS a resident of this fine state.
