Remington introduced the 7400 series in the early 1980s, refining the earlier 742 design with a stronger action and improved gas system. This example’s short-stroke piston and rotating bolt deliver consistent cycling with modern .30-06 loads.
The 22-inch steel barrel carries a 1:10" twist that stabilizes a wide range of bullet weights, while its deep blued finish matches the receiver for a uniform, classic look. Open sights—a ramped post up front and a fully adjustable rear leaf—remain in place for immediate use.
The checkered walnut Monte Carlo stock provides a 13.25" length of pull, a comfortable pistol grip, and a raised comb that aligns naturally with either the iron sights or a scope mounted on the included Weaver base.
With a detachable staggered-column magazine offering 7 + 1 capacity, quick reloads are straightforward. The receiver’s factory drill-and-tap pattern means most mainstream optic mounts can be installed without gunsmith work.
