742 Rem.
My 1st deer rifle was a Rem M-8/ 35 cal, I was 14. I was youngest in group. All
the older guys had 742 or 760 Rems. in 30/06. When I was 16 I bought 742c
Deluxe 30/06. We hunted in mountains of eastern WVa. I never had any major
trouble with it but later after having shot many other deer rifles I wished I had
Rem 8 back. It's a meat gun for moderate range, it's one of the few guns I bought new and sold. Remington has cheapened all their products to point I
don't consider them a Ist. rate gun.
