I'd love to hear why? Not because I disagree with you but because I never have been able to choose one over the other.

Mike -

I think the larger bolt lugs are better but....

There are thousands of 760s still shucking and killing game.

The 760s can't be that bad.

Yeah, I'd kinda like to hear a factor of one, let alone 10.....

On another note, someone mentioned the 141, which was I guess a "predecessor" of the 760/7600 series. I have one that is unfired from 1937. It is a 35 Remington caliber. I have to wonder, how many times Remington got sued when the owners sheared the end of their finger off while opening the bolt to unload the thing.

American wasn't a litigious society back then. If a person screwed up, he/she usually took responsibility for screwing up. I've never seen anyone hurt themselves cycling a Remington 14/141 action, but I've seen several people gouge a chunk of flesh out of themselves when cycling a Winchester 1897 pump gun.

Sweet Jesus, the stupid runs deep.

10 x 760 = 7600

Well S H,

I'll see how long it takes for you to figure that one.

Only on the 'Fire is the definition of savant being a person with an IQ over 30.

That's worse than a 760 by a factor of 126.6667
