My .244 Remington 722s

722 .244 Remington – # 3762xx – 26” barrel code XB – December 1955 – (the date 1/12/56 is etched inside the Buttplate).

722 .244 Remington – # 3837xx – 26” barrel with Code CC – April 1956 – very nice checkered stock, which I believe is original to this gun.

722 .244 Remington – # 3878xx - 26” barrel code PC – June 1956 - all original and excellent condition.

722 .244 Remington – # 3919xx – 26” barrel – NO Barrel Code but it is stamped with #51 where date code should be - (made 1956/1957 per serial number range OR 1958 per Remington, when they still answered the phone and were helpful) beautiful original and correct vintage Lyman 48 WJS rear Peep sight and ??? front sight.

Was up in Idaho last week and stopped in a local gun store. They had a Remington Model 721 in 30-06 sitting on the shelf. I could not pass it up for $240.00, it has an Herters I think, after-market stock with a really short length of pull, I'm going to look for a factory stock to put back on the rifle. The stock looks to have been cut down for a Jr. shooter. The bolt and follower are both jeweled which is interesting. The blue is near 100% and the bore is fantastic.

Hi! I am needing help identifying a 722 with serial number 370426. It is a .222 REM. Am I identifying it properly as a 1955 manufacturer date?

[Rem725]

1955 yes. Your 370426 is between
3699xx 722-244 E B 10/55
371xxx 721-3006 D B 9/55

The B indicates 1955. The letter before B indicates month.
Your should have a E or D as in EB or DB.
These letters are on the left side in the chamber area.

I call this one my "rescue rifle" it looks like whoever owned it before left it in the corner of their bedroom closet and let it rust up. It needs a good cleaning and de-rust treatment to get it in working order but everything is there, headspaces correctly, and has an excellent bore.

Hre are the specifics for the data listing:

Your right and I did see that but see how one A is bigger than the other. I hadn't seen date codes that were different sized !! I have seen them partially stamped and not lined up straight but not different sizes ?? I stand corrected ! Thanks John Taylor
