[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1177589, member: 7123"] Again, the Rem 597, the Ruger 10/22, and the new Puma replica of the Johnson 41 are the only very-high-cap-mag .22s that I'm aware of (looking at both factory and aftermarket offerings). Of those, I'd not consider any of them great rifles, but the Puma looks the 'funnest' (assuming it runs), due to the look/historical interest; the Ruger will have the best feeling of sturdiness/quality, if a bit on the ugly side (like all Rugers); but I'd still get the Remington of those 3, as they are strong supporters of gun rights, and a pretty decent looking and shooting rifle (the 597), if a bit on the cheesy/chinsy side of things, in terms of materials/fit/finish. When Rem put the smack down on Zumbo, I became a forever fan of them (was already anyway for the most part).
