Remington 597 is a great gun for the money. It is a full sized well balanced Real live shooter. After about 400 rounds The accuracy is amazing. It's a tack driver. Thanks to Buds guns For the great offering

This is a terrific little rifle, shoots great, even with bulk ammo. The scope is good too for one that comes with a rifle.

Sweet shooting .22! Sighted it in and haven't looked back yet. Have been shooting 1" groups at 100 yards with CCI ammo. Have fed it all kinds of different brands and types. Not a single failure to fire or feed yet. Over 2,000 rounds through it so far. Very well built gun. Has the same feel as an actual rifle and shoots like a much higher priced competition gun. Couldn't be happier with this .22. As always Bud's has great shipping and prices.

Can't say enough positive things about the 597. Although I replaced the scope that it came with, you can hit your target fine after sighting it in. My only problem with the scope is that the dials seem to get bumped out of position VERY easily- but not a Bud's problem at all, that's on Remington. The gun shipped quick, I picked it up at my FFL 3 days after the order processed. This is 9-10 guns from Bud's and every one has arrived quick and precisely as described. Comes with 1 10 round mag and a standard lock and paperwork inside a cardboard box. The 597 is a tack driver. It doesn't seem to like the Winchester X 40 grain 1300 FPS ammo, it went through just about every other kind we had without a problem. Winchester X would fail to eject a couple times each magazine. Will keep on trying it and see if that changes over time. Great gun for squirrels and general varmint control or just the casual paper targets. A great gun and a lot of fun!

The item arrived pretty fast. The FLL was really good. The gun was in perfect condition.

Remington 597 is a nice 22 rifle with a scope and only one magazine. When it arrived, there was a scratch on the gun, and when I pulled back on the operating handle it came off in my hand. I was not happy. My boy and I just came back from the range, and my son likes this 22 rifle. I adjusted the scope and my son was hitting the bulls-eye. The only problem we had was the magazine did get jammed. I reloaded the magazine and the rifle was working fine. I wish the magazine was a better quality.

Like others have said on here the "bore sight" part is non-existent. Not only was it off by 1.5 feet left and 6-8 inches low, the scope was mounted crooked ! Thought Remington would have some better quality control than this. Hope my next Remington (1911 stainless) is a lot better. After a quick reset and bore sight and about 10-15 rounds I finally got it zero'd in. Now it shoots nice 1-1.5 inch groups. Overall a nice lil 22lr for the price to go out and have some fun with.

Rifle will shoot decent groups out of the box with many different types of ammo.

Finally got my 597 after 30 days waiting for it, the Rifle looks and field wonderful and the action is smooth. Tucked to the range to brake it and it work so good with different ammo, This Rifle is a no brainer,. For the money you get a lot,. The only thing that I"L Rate low is the magazine, It just sheep stuff, I"L give five starts to the Rifle__

Great bang for the buck!!! Purchased so that my son and I could target shoot together (gave him my 10/22). Groupings at 100 yards are tight even with cheap bulk ammo. Heavier than the Ruger and feels more stable now that I'm used to the Remington. One flaw...and this might be a just mine. The magazine consistantly will stop loading at 8 rounds. I have ordered another as I'd rather have two mags anyway.

This is an amazing rifle. Light and well balanced, it feels great to hold. It took 10 minutes and 20 rounds to sight in the scope using dirty bird splatter targets at 20 yards, then I moved the target to 50 yards and put 10 in a row inside a 1" circle from the bench. After that I put some small water bottles at 100 yards and after a couple clicks of the scope hit all 5 in a row. I had a few FTE's (failure to eject) in the first 50 rounds but after that, no malfunctions. I put 200 rounds through it after that without a hitch. All in all, a great, fun gun at an amazing price that is very cheap to shoot.

Shipping was great, ordered on a wednesday picked up on the following tuesday, had a few small dings on top of reciever but nothing major. Shot it today had a few problems with federal ammo not cycling properly and stovepiping, had no problem with remington yellow jackets. Very accurate, shot penny size groups @50 yards. The scope is ok for a package gun, may replace it in the future, but is good enough for now. Overall 4 stars, would give 5 if not for the dings and maybe the cycling of cheap ammo will get better as the gun "breaks in".

My son and I took our 597 to the range and had a great time. THis rifle really impressed me. We fed it Federal 22lr and ran through about 300 rounds without a single problem. I was hoping to use the 597 myself and let my son use the Mossberg that I had bought a few weeks ago, but he hd way too much fun with the 597. The Mossberg turned out to be a poor choice for us, nice rifle but too small and bolt action where I thought I was buying a semi-automatic. Now I'm planning to pick up another 597 for myself and put the Mossberg up for sale. I highly recommend the 597 for someone that wants a sweet shooting, accurate 22.

Excellent rifle.Scope adjusted as it was supposed to do. Had .22 for two weeks and have fired 500 rounds of mostly federal bulk with no trouble at all. Scope is clear. Very nice package for the money. This is the fifth firearm I have purchased from Buds. Always happy with delivery. Thanks Buds

This is a fun gun. My first time out with it I stated out shooting cc minis and a variety of other ammo and finally ended up shooting over 300 rounds of bulk ammo and never had a jam. It shoots any thing you feed it and never gives you an issue. The scoop is accurate and easy to adjust. By the end of the day I could draw you a happy face. And to top it off it is easy to clean. Once again Bud’s delivered a quality gun at a great price.

This little gem is about as good as they get. Received mine in a flash and had it out on the range right after receiving the after market hammer, which is necessary to acheive good groups. If you enjoy .22s this combo is a wise choice. I just turned 70 and received my first rifle at 14. It was a .22, Rem. Field Master (pump). Strange that after all this time I'm back to the little .22. Thanks Bud's, I'm going to enjoy this one alot.

Super fun gun! The scope it comes with is pretty decent. CCI ammo is the way to go, the remington golden bullett is garbage. Very easy to take down and clean. I shot 400 + rounds with no major jamming ( besides the rem ammo golden ) I took it to the clark county shooting range and the workers there were impressed how good of a deal i got. This was my first purchase from BUDS and will not be my last. BUDS was solid throughout the whole shipping process. 2 thumbs up for BUDS and the Remington 597 .22 lr!!
