20" 597 or 16" 597 HB

[Exercitus]

Hey folks,

Sold my Winchester 490 recently, looking to pick-up another plinker and was thinking of the Remington 597, question is do I get the shorter (16") Heavy Barrel version or normal 20" Barrel? There's a 1/4 pound difference between both guns, the HB being a little heavier.

Cheers,

Exercitus

Get the HB if you have never had one before. I had the Browning Buckmark HB and it was a fantastic shooter

mines a great gun, I have an arch angel stock on mine and it shoots fantastic

I've got a 20" heavy barrel. But with the options given I'd pick 16" heavy
