Well here ya go........ I've had a 742 in .308 since '67 and, over the course of at least a thousand rounds of factory and handloads, it has never jammed. Only issue I've had is when I didn't take off the forend and clean and dry the spring and action tube after a very wet 10 day Ontario moose hunt in '73. A couple months later I took it out and when I pulled the bolt back, it stayed back. After that I always ran a clip through it at the end of a wet hunt to dry it out.
Well there's exceptions to every rule. I'd never own one, but that's just me. But then again I only handled over 100 of them over the years, so what do I know?
