Lightning1960,
You sure about that. Rem more accurate than a microgroove barrel from Marlin. I don't know.
Anyway, I hat to get the Remington even though I love Rem stuff. Just ain't crazy about the 597. I think they are about to go OP. That means over plastic. Instead of over dose it is over plastic. A gun can only be made to feel so flimsy before I loose interest. I know they got to save a buck but come on, don't make crap guns. Make a great gun and charge alot of $ and I'll buy it if it is a good product.
