Hi,
newbie here. I just purchased a brand new 30-06 Remington 700 BDL. I have not loaded or chambered any bullets yet. I am concerned because I can not put the safety in safe mode unless the bolt has been lifted and the gun has been cocked. Is this normal for the Remington 700? This is a brand new gun straight out of the box.
Thanks,
Adam
