Remington simi auto???
A friend bought a new 7600 Remington in 30-06 shot about 18 rounds in it and now it will not hit the primers, I don't know any thing about them, could the gas system be gummed up? he shot reloads in it.

Sure it isd not a 7400 Chuck? I was thinking the 7600 was the pump action/ IF the 7400, they had a problem with receivers and firing pins. Clean it really well and then see if the same thing. I had a 742 in 308 that teh head space would get off on it, the round would not go off, and the receiver had to be replaced. last time it did it I traded it to anotehr shop as IS. Told him what it did and he said he hasd a stack of parts for them. Have not owned anotehr remington auto centerfire rifle since.

The reloads could have the primer set too deeply.......

Friend brought it over and the fireing pin was sticky, I put some hoppies in it and freeded it up, he took it to the range and it worked great. again thanks fer the info.

Old name for them is "Remington Jamomatics!" Keeping them clean is the name of the game!! GHD
