Cub, not to be smart - that ? was asked and answered earlier in this same thread by more than just myself - somewhere between P 1 - 20 or so.

To be concise.

The older the 760 the GREATER drop at heel and toe so recoil is magnified.

Obviously all the 760s were popular and successful hunting rifles but the newer ones have not only cosmetic but mechanical changes that I and others like.

The bottom line is - IMO - if you like any 760 - 7600 - Six go for it. My 35 Whelen was made from a 760. My 'smith cut the throat to my loaded dummy round. NO PROBLEMS at all.
