Critch,
I have a 721 in .270 made in 48 . Still shoots a 140 gr. Hornady B.T. with the best of them. There is no way in this world that Remmy will get their hands on mine! As stated before, she breaks at a clean 3.2 pounds with absolutely no creep. Show me anything that Remmy offers that will do that now. As you can tell by my handle, I also am an avid fan and owner of a few old C.R.F. Winny's. I have never had an ejection problem with the 721. To be quite honest, some of the stuff I have read on this thread really amazed me. I always thought the 721 had one of the strongest actions ever produced. To read some of this, you would have to think they are total junk

Be careful, control the muzzle while unloading and enjoy a piece of history.
