The problems with the Remington auto have for the most part been corrected. I can't figure some of these thing out though. I had a 7400 30-06 for twenty years. I hardly ever cleaned it. It never jammed once or never failed to feed. It didn't like reloads so I never used them after a few tries at reloading it. I never shot anything in it again except WW power point factory loads. I hunted in SD in sub zero weather to temps of 100 degrees in the summer. No problems. My hunting buddy had one to and as far as I know he never had a problem with his either. The older ones would wear some part out in the action and could not be fixed. They could however be turned into a pump. Accuracy is very good with every one I ever shot.
