I've never owned a 760/7600, but have hunted with several that do, and they love them. Good choice.

Scope: Is a 4x fixed power Leupold scope with plex reticle ever a mistake on non-dangerous big game at any responsible shooting distance? Nope. That's what my FN Mauser 98 JC Higgins model 50 30-06 wears.

Your hunting range is to 200 yards? Sight 1-2" high at 100 yards, and hold dead on at any distance to 200 yards. It doesn't get any simpler than that for a sighting device. They go for $150 used on ebay. Leupold has a lifetime warranty. No brainer. Not sure if Leopold has the reticle you are describing, but to 200 yards, it's not needed.

Load: Tough to beat IMR 4350 for a 30-06 bullet weight from 165-200+ grains.
