I've got 2 of these and they are by far my favorite rifle for calling 'cats in tight cover.

I think that all of the 597 Magnums with green laminated stocks came with light/sporter contour barrels with open sights, while those with brown laminated stocks came with heavy/varmint contour barrels.

Had no idea there was a recall my dad brother and I all have one consecutive serial #s I believe. It's been in the safe for a good 15 years. What was the recall?

If I am not mistaken the recall was due to the 17 having to much pressure for an automatic and it was causing some of the guns to blow up. I think if you send it in to Remington they will change the barrel out for a 22 mag.

Good to know, i shot mine quite a bit but the other two probably have less than 100 rounds down the tube. I'll look into this.Thanks again.

Since they have been recalled, if you still have the original boxes and stuffings, they might become collectible at some point down the road.

I had a 17 HMR in the 597 heavy barrel and it was a tack driver. I was using it and the round came apart cycled the bolt half way back and blew the clip up in my hands. Half of the round was still in the barrel. I called remington and they where very helpful and very concerned about if was injured in the malfunction. I returned the rifle and they replaced it and paid everything shipping both ways etc. I later sent it in when the recall came out and they sent me a $250.00 check to use on another remington purchase. I picked up a 17 Fireball in the SPS when they were cheap to buy and never looked back. I replaced the HMR with a ruger single six in 17 HMR.

They did swap my barrel out to .22 mag, and the gun has not cycled since I sent it in.
