Well got my 597 22lr on fri & went to the range today to pit it against my 1022 . after sighting in the red dot sight I found the 597 shot very good groups .But unfortunetly the wind was very strong so I could not go for any long range stuff . It was also the first chance to shoot my 1022 since I installed boyds blaster stock & GM 18" target barrel . It also shot good groups .
A freind showed up with his 597 17HMR . He fired off a couple clips & then a round went off I asume before the bolt was closed & blew the mag apart & cracked the stock . Any one have a simmiler prodlem with a 597 17 HMR ?
And who in canada will do Remington warranty ? The local dealer is a warenty depo but wont touch the 597 .
