I have a 700 with the J-Lock. How do I fix this and how big of a problem actually is it?

Brownells sell non J-Lock complete assemblies (Remington, Gre-Tan, etc)...and if you can field strip your bolt you can swap them yourself with no special tools required.

grizz007bought one from Holland Gunsmithing that also replaces quite simply for my long action-simple fix.

Rick 0311The Holland and Gre-Tan models are a bit more expensive than the factory assemblies, but they use much better springs, lighter firing pins, and have closer tolerances on the cocking piece and slot.
