I think the 742 is a good rifle. Shooting off the bench requires a little finess though. The 742 is a better rifle than the 740. And I think the 7400 is an improvement over the 742.
The 742's I have owned all have been in 30-06.
I have torn different 742 apart more than a few times. I also recommend taking it to someone who has had experience with them.
