    Remington 597 Evolution

    It seems that the 597 as first released had its problems like any new product. I'm now hearing more favorable reviews from the masses. Has anyone heard what specific changes they have made to make this model more reliable? BTW, I already have a 10/22 so don't even mention it :)

    Marlin 39AS Question

    I picked up a Marlin 39AS yesterday and it has me baffled. Upon taking it apart I can't figure out how the bolt locks up. On every other gun I've taken apart the locking surfaces have been quite obvious. Anyone know how it locks up?

    Simmons scope a good deal?

    Both Midway and SWFA have a Simmons Whitetail Classic 4-12x44 A/O Matte Granite finish scope on sale for $99. Any experience with the Whitetail? I'm obviously not expecting Leupold or Zeiss quality here, but isn't Simmons generally better than Tasco or Bushnell?
