A local sporting good store was going out of business and had all of it's firearms on clearance. I picked up a Remington model 597 .22 cal rifle for a touch over a hundred dollar bill. I fit it up like my Ruger 10/22 with a Braska 4x12 (30 mil) scope and an extended magazine in case there is ever a gopher invasion.
Boy was I surprised at how well the Remington shot and functioned!!! The factory trigger is crisp and has a real clean break. I always thought the Ruger's trigger was decent for a factory job, but it in no way compares to the Remington. There are a few thing about the 597 I would maybe change, but overall I was pleased.

That may not be the case with all ammo, but the CCI Stingers I was putting through them last night have always been my .22 ammo of choice.
