Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Rimfires Better than a 10/22?

I do love the 10/22 and it is the easiest to completely strip and clean. The Remington 597 is fairly simple too but the action rods require a little finesse, there is a trick to getting them back in with the springs on them. Once you figure it out its cake.

The 597 also has 2 action screws and is floated from the factory. Great little gun and it's cheaper than the 10/22. Not a lot of aftermarket support but some. I put a volquartsen target hammer in mine and the trigger is nice now, not perfect mind you but very acceptable. I may do the Mcarbo springs and lighten it a little more. Every couple of years someone else comes out with another aftermarket dohicky for it. Tech sights make a peep for it now, I may try those.
