Description:
Guns Listing ID: 652054



The Remington 740 Woodsmaster is a gas-operated, semi-automatic rifle produced between 1955 and 1959, with over 251,000 units made. Primarily chambered in .30-06 Springfield, it features a 22-inch barrel, a 4-round detachable magazine, and a walnut stock. Known for its sleek design, the 740 is popular for hunting but can suffer from reliability issues if not properly maintained.
Key Features and Details:
Production Era: 1955–1959, designed as an \"autoloading\" hunting rifle.
Caliber: Primarily .30-06 Springfield, though available in .244 Rem, .280 Rem, and .308 Win.
Design & Action: Semi-automatic with a gas-jet system that drives the action, similar to the Remington 1100 shotgun.
Capacity: 4-round detachable box magazine (plus 1 in chamber).
Weight & Length: Approximately 7.5 pounds, with an overall length of 42.25 inches.
Stock: Walnut, often with checkering on ADL deluxe models, which included a pistol grip cap and sling swivels.
Sights: Usually equipped with a rear elevator sight and a front blade, with receivers drilled/tapped for scope mounts.
Performance Considerations:
Reliability: The 740 has a reputation as a \"jam-o-matic\" if dirty, particularly with modern, high-pressure 30-06 loads that are hotter than 1950s ammunition.
Maintenance: Proper cleaning is essential to prevent the bolt from sticking, as the gas system can get dirty quickly.
Legacy: Predecessor to the Remington 742 and 7400.
