Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Which is better rifle - Remington 760 or 7600?

I think there is two versions of the 760, one with the barrels free floating, and older ones with the barrel connected to the slide with a hangar type set-up. I beleive the change took place around 1968. I own a 760 made in 72 that shoots great. The barrels that remington used in the 70's and 80's for the most part were very well made. The 760 has better irons imo. The 7600 has a higher comb, and less lugs as pointed out above.
