whats wrong with the remington 597?
Ever take a look at the trigger assembly? Looks like leftover ballpoint pen parts. Not to mention the trigger pull on mine and every other one I picked up was close to 10 pounds which makes it darn near impossible to shoot accurately. Mine was a three round wonder too.

If you really don' t have even the slightest idea which .22 to go with........

it makes it all that much easier. Ruger 10/22. Can really be " customized" or " accesorized" any way (and more ways) you want it. Nuf said!

I' ve had a bunch of different .22' s and the one thing you can always count on is the 10/22. Got three (10/22' s) right now.

the 10/22 is one way to go and its a nice gun, but so in the TC classic. guy i shoot with has one and it was dropping one-holers at the 50 ft line. i decided then that why should i need to customize my 10/22 to get this kind of performance. the TC has a better trigger and the stock is also a nice peice of wood. i grew up with a 10/22 and i think the sights are better in the TC as well. the TC is on my list for 22s to buy

For $200 dollars and top notch accuracy, I wouldn' t get a .22. I would go with New England Firearms Sportster, $149 dollars, in .17 HMR. For a .22, you have to go with a Ruger 10/22, preferably with heavy barrel and synthetic stock. But trust me, that little sportster is a cool gun man, comes with scope rail, single shot, great little gun, and it is a tack driver.

I also agree with the 10/22. I have one and recently put a new trigger on it and it shoots like a dream. Mine isn' t the target model either, but it shoots more than good enough for me.
