Remington Model 7 feed problem....

[kkp005]

Did you send it back? I’m having the same issues....

I haven’t... need to this off season

Every round gives a little trouble in this gun....

I have one in .308 and haven't had a single issue with it, killed dozens of deer.

Hope you can figure it out.

Could the spring not be installed correctly or the follower in backwards? Seems like i had a 223 that had the same issue. The spring wasnt in the clip on the floorplate and caused the ammo to tilt.

I've fixed the issue by adjusting the spring/follower...they can get catty wampus every now & then.

Artos.... I’ll mess with it..and see what happens.... This little gun is a tackdriver and is perfect for him....

You will see how the leaf spring slides into the floor plate & follower so it has some room...biggest thing I've seen is getting balanced centered. I like to insert & then pull my cases all the way to the rear of the mag well until they stop.

Try pushing down on it with one finger like it is now & feel how much teeter-totter it has & then tear her down to see if you can alter it any. Gotta save it if it's a shooter.

I have owned several Model 7 and I have never had a feed problem with any of them.

Sir, what model is that?

I’ve seen tons of model seven feeding problems. Generally the 243 is the most reliable I’ve seen. Check the box magazine doesn’t have some funky ears or protrudes too far up.
