Remington 7400
Someone is trying to sell me a Remington 7400 30-06 cal, with a scope not sure what kind it is, wood stock, and he says it looks brand new. He only wants $250 for it and brand new in synthetic they are $620 with no scope.Anyone use this gun or has heard anything from it?

I've heard they are prone to jamming even when kept clean. I have ne personal experience with it though, this is just from my dad, my friend and a few gunsmiths I've talked to.

You can't go wrong for the asking price, though, because youcan always re-sell it if it doesn't work well, for more than $250.00!!

RE: Remington 7400
I have never owned one but a good friend who hunted with me for many years had one in 30-06. In all the years we hunted, that gun never malfunctioned even once WITH FACTORY LOADS. It did however sometimes have trouble with reloads. He used nothing but WW 150 grain PSP's in it.
