Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
Introduced in 1948 alongside its long-action companion (the Model 721), the Remington Model 722 holds a historic position in American firearms design as the direct mechanical ancestor to the legendary Model 700. Engineered by Mike Walker, the Model 722 featured a rigid cylindrical receiver, fast lock time, and a recessed bolt face that provided exceptional action strength. In 1950, Remington introduced the .222 Remington cartridge specifically for the Model 722—a pairing that immediately revolutionized varmint hunting and benchrest target shooting due to its legendary inherent accuracy and mild recoil.
This specific example is an authentic Remington Model 722 bearing serial number 354848, manufactured in 1954 according to its "CA" barrel date code. Chambered in iconic .222 Remington, it features a 25-inch tapered blued barrel, factory blued receiver, plain American walnut pistol grip stock, and an installed Bushnell 3-9 Sportview Wide Angle variable power rifle scope with vintage see-thru lens caps. Displaying smooth original blued finishes, a mirror-bright bore with sharp rifling, tight bolt lockup, and clean mechanics, this 1954 Model 722 is a fine addition for classic American rifle collectors and varmint shooting enthusiasts.
