I've used Warne 20 degree steel pic rails for years. Great job.
On my favorite rifle, a Rem 700 PSS, the external action dimensions were off causing a loss of elevation. Also the mount holes are off so the scope is off center. So I'd check where your scope's actual zero is compared to your rifle's zero when ordering a rail. I lose like 7 moa right off the bat so I currently have a discontinued NightForce 60 moa rail on there and love it. Rails are like anything else so I'd get the one that fits your needs and budget. I'd also look into bedding a rail if needed. If using a aluminum rail try to stick with aluminum rings, the same with steel rings and rails. What's your budget?I will be switching from an old Redfield tapped and drilled mount to a Picatinny rail system for my Rem 721. Since there seems to be many manufacturers of these rails, how much difference is there in their products?
Thanks for input, I've decided to go with HD EGW for my 721. Will post back when I've wrung them out a little.If you choose EGW be sure to use their HD line of rails.

Thanks for all the advice folks, Had my smith install it so that it was done right.I will be switching from an old Redfield tapped and drilled mount to a Picatinny rail system for my Rem 721.
