RE: Anybody use the remington 597.

I agree with Aggie. The 597 has a while lot of plastic on it and would jam a lot. I traded up to a marlin and love it. It does not jam with the same ammo and is a good shooter.

RE: 20 ga dilema

Two options. Look at the youth 870. It may offer a little better fit.

If a full-size gun is ok, look at CZ. They have a semiauto 20ga that is real reasonable. I paid about 275 for mine last year.
