I have never been able to locate the pump mechanism on my bolt action Remington 700 chambered in .243 Win.

I’ll look again.

The problem is you are not applying enough pressure. You have to pull really really hard. :-)

"I have never been able to locate the pump mechanism on my bolt action Remington 700 chambered in .243 Win. I’ll look again." Lol, not necessary; brain fart in my part. I was on my first cup of coffee, best excuse I can come up with. I actually have two left handed bolt action 700's, a 243 and a 270. And a 870 20 gauge pump and a left handed 12 gauge 1100. So, lesson learned; never post on ones first cup of coffee and always proof ones post before hitting send. Have a great day 😏!

You have to move the pump handle up first, then you can move it back and forth.

Don’t forget to move the handle back down. It won’t fire if the handle is up.
