Remington Model 740 Woodsmaster Semi-Auto Rifles: 1955 - 1959
History: The Remington Arms Company introduced the model 740 Woodsmaster in 1955 with the ever popular caliber of 30-06 Sprg. which was followed by its short action companion, the 308 Win. caliber, in 1956. A total of four calibers were offered along with a number of stock options including the ADL and BDL versions. Additionally, this rifle was produced in a couple of high grade variations with scroll engraving, gold inlayed game scenes and fancy wood known as their Peerless and Premier grades. The 740 Woodsmaster enjoyed a short production life of only five years when it was discontinued in 1959 and replaced with the noticeably similar (in appearance) model 742 Woodsmaster the following year. The schematic (burgundy button) directly below is provided as an aid and can be printed for personal use.
