Thanks again guys!
It's actually a 722. Got it for Christmas in 1967...it was used and was originally a .300 Savage. My oldest brother was in the Oregon National Guard and on the shooting team, he went to Camp Perry and the National Matches several times in the 60's. Anyway he had mass amounts of 7.62 brass, so he took it to the local gunsmith and rechambered it to .308 Win. I think my brother has every rifle that has ever been chambered to use 7.62 or 30-06 brass!
BTW...My brother has a MINT M1 Garand (never been fired) that he won back at Camp Perry.
