You are comparing apples and oranges (bull barrel Mk II to a pencil barrel older model). If you are comparing oranges to oranges, you can get the standard barrel Mk II for about $150.
That being said, I'm with Jeager on the 5XX Remingtons. I've got a nasty looking old 512x that was my Grandfather's snake gun. It will out shoot any other .22LR I've ever owned.
