Re: Don't buy a S&W 22A
Great shooting ... and a great little gun.
Order a good supply of recoil buffers, they mash up fast and need changing often.

Re: Remington 597 owners
They've been talking about them for a few weeks over at RFC.

If a local dealer says they have them check two things:

Re: Remington 597 owners
Maybe double stack was the wrong term ... how about staggered stack?
In the picture below I have 2 rounds in the new mag, you can see the first round is "staggered" off to the side.
In the old...

Remington 597 owners
Remington has a newly designed magazine for the 597 lr.
Anyone who has a 597 knows the magazine is trash, the double stacking design caused feeding problems due to the double stack "overlap" of each...

Re: Remington 597 22LR
I tricked mine out with a Jarvis Custom hammer, barrel and stock ... it will out shoot any tricked out 10/22.
When I get the newly designed magazines, any problems I had should be solved.

Re: Aftermarket reminton 597 magazines
I read on another board that Remington has come out with a new mag for the 597.
It's a bit longer and thinner with a heavier spring.
The double stacking was causing the ammo to bind and the spring...

Re: September Contest
I believe all shots MUST be in the WHITE. If you touch the black of any target, that target is null and void.
Five shots, in the white, for five consecutive targets.

Re: keppler's July contest
Most of NJ is under water (maybe it will get cleaned up a bit) ...
No range for at least 5 days because of rain.
This summer is a bummer.

Re: Monthly Contest ??
I converted it to a .pdf file, it's 284kb if that will help let me know where to send or upload it. I can do that for any of the targets. This way you know they'll all print the same size.

Re: Monthly Contest ??
I don't know, thats why I shoot ... to have fun.
I'm very flexable with the rules and use novelty targets ... but I guess if you cant turn in a high score people dont want anyone to know about it....
