Bagged my first deer with a 722 in .300 Savage. Still have it though I moved the scope to my Winchester. It is surprisingly good with the original iron sights--I had always figured they were mostly for decoration. The relatively tame recoil has made it a favourite for my son and his friends to learn to shoot 'high power' rifles. Iron sights and a 12-inch gong at 250 yards makes them feel very accomplished.
