shooting a 740 remington - 02/03/13
My Dad had a 740 Remington. He bought it to hunt the woods of northern Minnesota with his father in law and brother in law. Never did so. Gun bought in 1953 or so. He custom stocked it and had a Weaver tip off with Weaver 4X post reticle. . Shot probaly 50 times. I am taking it to the range tomorrow. Lost my Dad 4 years ago. We hunted all the time. He never shot this gun as we are in Iowa. I have some Remington 180s he had and Winny Silvertiprs 180. The rounds are probably worth more than shooting fodder but I am going to shoot them anyway. Should be interesting.
