Looking at a 1950 rem 722 in .222.

Date provided by Remington.

The stock has a black tipped fore end.... cap with white spacer on pistol grip and butt plate.

It sure looks stock but I've never seen a 722 other than plain jane, with fancier wood and checkering.

Since 1950 introduced the.222 rem, could there have been such a fancy stock for marketing purposes?

I'm wondering if it was restocked with a rem 700 stock somewhere along the line?

Can't take pics in the gunshop, so no photo available.

Thanks,
Joe
