The first step is to figure out why it's not cycling correctly in the first place. It could be a number of reasons, and there's no way to tell you how to remedy the problem without first knowing the cause. I'd suggest you take it to a reliable gunsmith.

There have never been any recalls on the Remington Model 742 that I'm aware of. The Remington 742 is now an obsolete model and was replaced with the Remington Model 7400. The bolt received an upgraded design along with the magazine catch/release. At one time Remington was offering a Model 7400 as a replacement for the Model 742, if you sent them your Model 742 along with $350.00. Is there a problem with the 742 that you have?
