You have the best rifle Rem ever made ! i have had my 721 in 3006 for 30 years and have taken many deer with it . shoots 3/4 inch groups with standard Rem 150 grain soft points . Only thing i dont like is it kicks like a mule 🤣
I've got 3 721s. '06, 270 & 300 H&H. That rear sight is NOT broken. The sight has been removed to make room for the scope and a filler block replaced it.
I have the same rifle it was my grandpas it's not in the most amazing condition but damn that action is smooth as butter mines a June 1949 74 years old and it still stacks bullet holes at 100
I inherited my grandpas 30-06 721 made 47’ beautiful gun buttery action like you’re mentioning. Love the thing, wish he was shooting it with me instead but for now I’ll take care of it
Nice rifle, I have a 1949 model 721 in 30-06. Be aware the extractor on the bolt face has been unavailable for many years. My extractor broke, I wound up fitting a 700 bolt in mine. The 700 bolt was drop in with perfect head spacing, the safety lever that engages with the slot on the bolt had to be modified is all. The 721 locks the bolt closed when the safety is on.
