I will look into getting a more modern set up like the ones you suggest.
Thanks again.
It must be VERY old - the current ones have a handle above the trigger to open the action and reload it!
By the checkering, it was made in the mid 1970's... it was the first Remington rifle that had machine "cut" checkering, instead of stamped.
