So I was able to pick this up today from my local gun shop for $225. I've never owned a Remington model 722 but this one seems to be fairly nice. Someone had put a manlicer stock on it and jeweled the bold and the boat handle and added an aftermarket trigger that is quite nice. It wears an old Weaver K4 scope. The bore is bright and shiny and only took a little cleaning to get the remaining copper fouling out of the barrel. I am hoping this will be a dedicated Cast Bullet rifle if I can get it to shoot well. I am not quite sure when the rifle was made maybe one of you guys could help me out on that. The serial # is 258xxx
My dies and brass should be here tomorrow so I can started assembling some loads for her. On a sidenote, the stock is kind of interesting it has a metal for end and I'm a little concerned because the barrel seems to touch parts of the stock from the front of the receiver all the way down towards the muzzle. This could be problematic but I suppose I just need to shoot it and find out. I'm not 100% in love with this stock so if I have to get a new one that will not be the end of the world. I just hope it shoots well.
