I've taken a couple 200yd+ shots with a 7600, and did OK.
But if you look at how the scope is mounted on a 7600, its not as stable as a bolt action mounted scope. I was told this by a gunsmith, who no, was not trying to sell me another rifle, but who wanted to inform me of the 760/ 7600 limitations. He knew I had other rifles I could use. I just use my 7600 for more close up work, expected hunting less than 200yds.
So just saying.
I've seen some damn accurate 760's and 7600's. I think your smith was smoking dope. Is he from Washington? That stuff is legal there now...
My 7600 is very accurate. I am relating what I was told by a good credible gunsmith, who has since passed away, at age 80.
What are you on, your 2nd 6 pack of the evening? Getting a little, just a little, surly over a simple topic aren't ya.
