[QUOTE="7stw, post: 732099, member: 22854"] Garagegunner, the 721 action is a well built action, and is what eventually became the 700 action, which needs no introduction. It is strong, the tolerances were a little tighter in those days. I know of a few awesome rifles built on that same action. Now, FYI, the 721 is a long action, and the 722 is the short action. The one you have is the long action. If you are going to build a 308, that is still fine, but you will have plenty of seating depth allowance with that action. You hardly can't go wrong. If you go with a custom stock, you will have to notch out a little around the safety, as the 721 safety is a little different, and will need a little releif where it sits into the stock. Other than that, go for it!! Enjoy the ride!!! [/QUOTE]
