Well that's better but certainly not good. Tho the semi was never really good.

Discontinuing the 7600s ? ?

Say it ain't so !!!

Might outta stock up.

I stopped by Ahlman's in Morristown, Mn. today. They only had a couple 760's. They were both .270's and if anyone says I looked at them for any length of time, I'm denying it and that's my story!

A new 7600 is about $775. They just became cost prohibitive.

Is the synthetic stock & forearm from an 870 20 gauge? All of the synthetic stocked 7400s and 7600s that I've seen were monte carlo style.

With all the 760/7600 enthusiasm being displayed, there should be more than a few tags punched with them in the upcoming season. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

No, they're not OEM but Bell & Carlson aftermarket.

I Have A 760 carbine in 30-06 I'm planning on giving a few days attention. Don't get much better in the woods.

20years ago you would see 760's pretty frequently in Pa. Not so much anymore and the bolt rifle is more common by far.

If I punch a rifle tag this year it will be with a pump.

Hopefully we'll have plenty of pics and stories when the time comes this season.

That's pretty much a given, here too.

Already got the bear(358Win), next is moose(35W), then MI, WI, and KS deer(270). Hoping for a trifecta this year.

Good luck and have fun but I'm sure you'll have both

Same in my area , used to be all 94s , 336s or Remington pumps and autos . I'll probably use everything from a 44 mag rifle through the 760 . 740, 7400 up to a 300 RUM Sendero. All depends where I hunt .

That's ok. I'll be the oddball out there with a 99 slinging 300 Savage rounds at the Turdy Point Buck. Betty Lou-she's the one!

True up here as well....but a nice 780-7600 does not hang around on gun store shelves too long

I ran into a guy up on the hill behind my house carrying an old 94 Winchester last season. First one in quite a while now. I was starting to think I was the only one left around here who still uses one. Nice guy. Helped me drag my deer to my Jeep.

The spot we used to hunt up north of Brainerd, Mn. was like this. There was our group and one other bunch of guys in there. Good guys-every one of them. They had a couple older fellows who still made it into their stands every year, and we always made a point of checking on them in case they needed help dragging one out, or needed anything. Our groups drug deer out for each other on multiple occasions. They camped at the trail head we walked in on, and we were always welcome for coffee or a beer at day's end. They had ATV's, and would haul our deer out to the trail head if they crossed paths with us on the way out. I'd always run into town and get them a 12 pack and leave it sitting on the seat of their ATV the next day.

above is my pumps. the one on the log is a rare 141 transition with 22in barrel and model 14 receiver that dose not say gamemaster. it was only made in 1935 I have never seen another one. the other is a model 14 carbine made in 1912 I found both ae a pawn shop. when I got the 14 the stock was covered with crude but I knew there was nice wood underneath, and boy was I right! they are both in 30 rem. and they are both good shooters.

That's some serious eye candy!

I have a 141 in 35 with nice wood but nothing like that!

Can you still find factory ammo for them?
