I was 9 and smoked a tiny forkie at 7 yards. Next year I killed a 1 horn spike at about 100 yards.

I’d like one of those myself. Cool old rifle!
It was a Christmas gift from my Grandad to my Great Grandad the first year the .244 debuted. I was actually the first person to kill a deer with it since there were no deer around here back when it was new.

I borrowed it for two seasons and Great Grandad told me I should just keep it since I was putting it to good use. Then he asked to borrow it back to shoot some geese, ha old timers. The same year my dad bought me a M7 for Christmas and I kind of forgot about the 760. Sadly when the old man passed a cousin ended up with it and I have no idea what ever became of it, my Grandad was pretty upset since it had been a gift from him. I would pay twice what it’s worth to have it to give him for Christmas.
