Just saw the CNBC segment
It was very alarming. While I do not like bolt action rifles because of my being lefthanded and taught to fire righty in the Army. What concerns me is that is that I am in the market for a semi Rem 750 in the 308 chamber and wondering if there is a similar or like problem in that model.
On TFL I have seen many posts calling the 740/742/7400 "jamamatics." Is Remington covering up on that issue also? Has any one had jamming in the 750? |
