Thanks to everyone for their posts. It's fun to see what everyone is buying these days. Well naturally we all probably pay more attention to the posts with pics, but I read the others too. Like they say, "if there is no pic, it probably didn't happen", just kidding...lol
I bought this Remington model 597 .22 with composition stock, BSA red dot for my wife, the grand kids and me. It was a tough decision between this and the Ruger 10/22, which would have been fun to add on a bunch of tactical goodies, but I wanted a "stay open" bolt after last shot for safety reasons. Plus it was on sale at Cabela's for almost $100 less than the Ruger. It shoots right on after being bore sighted by Don at Cabela's in Sidney, not picky on ammo and feels like you're holding a quality "MADE IN THE USA" high power rifle.
Thanks for looking.
