The speed with which they zip out rounds is rivaled only by the striking appearances of our new additions to this venerable, semi-auto rimfire lineup. Easily the most advanced rimfire rifle ever built, the Model 597? represents the first technological breakthrough in the category in 35 years.

Because our Model 597 action is #1 in autoloading rimfire reliability and out-of-the-box accuracy, it was only natural we develop the Model 597? TVP? (Target-Varmint Plinker) to take full advantage of the superior design. Truly the ultimate 22 target-rifle platform, this tack-driver features a 20" stainless heavy barrel and a laminated thumbhole stock that?s contoured to accommodate right- and left-handed shooters with equal comfort. It offers impeccable balance for offhand shooting.

Speaking of turning heads, our Mossy oakŽ Blaze Orange Camo and Mossy Oak Pink Camo Model 597 are perhaps the most distinctive rimfires ever built. Both have 20", standard-contour carbon steel barrels and TruGloŽ fiber-optic front sights.
