I keep hearing this, but never have seen it happen. I have a 742 from 1976, best friend has one same year. Neither have ever had a jam, i still shoot deer with it every year... with same redfield scope.

It’s because the bolt is made of steel and the rails the bolt sits on is aluminum. For your average deer hunter that shoots it maybe 4-5 times a year, it’s a non issue. For the guys that have shot a couple hundred rounds, the wear on the rails makes it inoperable over time.

My 742 has been around my whole life, shot a mountain of deer and never jams. A cheap $25 Walmart Bushnell scope, that has not been adjusted since first mounted a quarter century ago, drives tacks at 100 yards (i don't shoot much farther than 125 or so).
