Default RE: Remington 7400 Autoloaders

I have a Rem 7400 in 270 that I bought in 1991. It was my first high power rifle. I have put many rounds throught it. It has only jammed one session and this was because of the loads being to light. It will with myself shooting group at around 1 to 1 1/2 MOA. 42 grs of IMR4064 and a 150 gr Hornady bullet would not operare the action on this rifle but 46grs of IMR4064 and the 150gr Hornady bullet was just dandy. If you shot this rifle at a deer and missed I will gaurantee you it was your fault and not the rifles. This past summer it has started to not feed the last cartridge and upon close inspection I have found that the magazine has gotten bent a small amount. I have tried to straighten this but it sometimes still fails to load the last round. Time for a new mag.
