Madison, N.C. – Over the past decade,
the Remington® Model 597 has become one of the most
popular semi-automatic rimfire rifles available. Hunters and
shooters of all ages enjoy the Model 597 for its superior
accuracy and fast shooting, semi-auto reliability. With more
women and younger shooters venturing to the range, the Model 597
is sure to gain their approval with the addition of two unique
versions featuring Mossy Oak Blaze™ Orange Camo and
Mossy Oak Blaze Pink Camo synthetic stocks.
Upon first glance, the new Mossy Oak Blaze Orange Camo and Mossy
Oak Pink Camo Model 597s remind us of how much fun rimfire
shooting can be. Both models feature 20", matte finish,
standard-contour carbon steel barrels and are chambered in 22
long rifle for years of inexpensive shooting. This complete
eye-catching package is topped off with TRUGLO® fiber optic
rifle sights for fast and precise target acquisition.
The Model 597 is easily the most advanced
autoloading rimfire rifle ever built. The difference starts with
our proprietary bolt-guidance system, which features a unique
set of twin tool-steel guide rails for better stability, feeding
reliability and greater out-of-the-box accuracy. The bolt,
hammer and sear of the Model 597 all feature an exclusive
nickel-Teflon® plating for smooth, dependable operation and an
ultra-crisp trigger pull. To assure reliable, long-term
accuracy, we’ve also incorporated a unique positive-locking,
permanently rigid barrel attachment clamp. Receivers are grooved
for standard rimfire mounts and drilled/tapped for the
pre-mounted Weaver-style base. Completing the breakthrough
design are an innovative last-shot “hold open” magazine feature
and our patented, easy-to-use staggered-stack 10 round magazine
box.
