I stumbled onto a vintage 700 ADL Remington in .222 Rem mag, and by the barrel date code, if I read it correctly, get September 1963. Does anyone know when the .222 mag round was introduced? I know the .222 Rem was 1950, but unsure of the mag round. Anyhow, I think I'm gonna go back and purchase the rifle tomorrow, its listed for $595 and comes with a vintage 1960s 3-9x Bushnell Scopechief. Set-up is in 95% condition. Do you all think its worth $595? Thank you for your input.
