dogcatcher223 - thanks for the reply and the confirmation. Are you aware of any documentation (articles, recall, etc.) wherein Remington has acknowledged this problem with their 700?

This evening I checked with my buddy who owns this one - he has purchased a .270 now and has has assured me that he will not load that Remington again until the problem is fixed. He did confirm that it has fired unexpectedly three times as he has disengaged the safety and twice when the buttstock has been bumped. I am going to do my best to make certain that it gets fixed.

If you or anyone else here can cite a Remington company reference to this problem, I will appreciate it. Thanks again,
