The Model 742 Woodsmaster is a semi-automatic, gas-operated rifle chambered in .30-06 Springfield with a 22-inch steel barrel. It uses a detachable box magazine with a 4+1 capacity and is marked on the barrel ".30-06 SPRG." and "Made in U.S.A." Open sights include a ramped bead front and an adjustable rear leaf.
Walnut furniture features diamond-pattern checkering on the pistol-grip stock and fore-end. The length of pull is 13.0 inches. A steel checkered buttplate with the Remington logo and a white-line spacer is fitted. Sling attachments consist of a fixed rear sling loop in the buttstock and a matching front loop.
The aluminum alloy receiver was originally finished in black anodize and features factory roll-engraved hunting scenes on both side panels; the finish shows heavy wear with large bright alloy areas exposed.
A Weaver Pivot mount is installed. This swing-away design allows the scope to pivot aside for quick use of the iron sights. The scope is mounted in the pivoting rings and ready for range or field use.
