Here's a pic from the Remington 1981 catalog showing the bolt of the Model 4, 6, 7400, & 7600 rifles. -----------------AND----------- 1981 was a very good year ! ! Those were the days. +/- $300.00 Jerry

The 7600 is a better rifle than the 760 by a factor of 10. 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.

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.

Well S H,
we all can't be savants.

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

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

The new mathman Apparently that would be having the ability of counting to 11 with my shoes on.
