Might also be a good idea to let us know what you want this rifle for??
Sub MOA target shooter? Gopher killer?? Plinker???
That can really help on the decision of buying a new rifle.......If you are looking for sub MOA target shooting then I would go bolt all the way.
Looking for a plinker? Most semi's will fit the bill.........want a semi that you can trick out like crazy??
Then you go back to the 597 and the Ruger 10/22
Alot of after market junk for these two models....And I have seen pretty good results from both after a good amount of money is spent on em
I will attack a pic of my Pimpedx Ruger 10/22.......I have spent ALOT of green on this toy...but its been all worth it
Yes my friend that is 24 carat gold plate on the reciever
