Talking a while back with DarlaG on here about the 7600 Police in .308 with a 16.5 inch barrel, he told me when you shoot one, "Ducks and geese fly back north for the winter!" I still want one, though. I think the rear peep was by Wilson Combat and did not use the rear scope base screw holes so, you could scope it conventionally if you wanted. I have no issue with my 18.5 inch barrel .30-06 7600 recoil-wise as a hunting gun. It's not fun to shoot from a bench, though. Carbines are fun and quick-feeling to carry and hunt with. I'd go 18.5 if I were you, Shaman. Cool project and thanks for introducing me to Sell.
