rem model 770 firing when safety pushed to off

Question
on cnbc  10/20  there was a report on the Remmington 700 series  bolt action rifles would fire without finger on trigger when safety is moved to fire position

Answer
Robert,

That is correct.  Rather than retyping all of the info regarding this potential safety issue with the Remington 700, I have provided a link to an article that handles it well.

Best regards,
