Joelblack88, yes it is the same rifle. A cutie and IMO a steal. Forty years ago I sent an octagon No .4 22LR to Parker Hale in UK, they relined it with a target grade liner, cut to 18", made a new fat forend with a rather incongruous schnable,
a scope rib 8" long and it has had a Weaver 330 in Hill rings all that time. Lyman 52A rear, 77 front. Very efficient little rifle but rather clunky looking. This new one is a .22WMR which is not as desirable to me as a 22LR but it is supremely elegant. Slightly spoiled by having scope blocks installed but I can put an old Fecker Small Game scope on them. Michael could write an article for Precision Shooting, call it "Beauty and the Beast, two Remingtons".
