I have two, a 7600 in .280 that I've had since a little before 1990, and an older 760 in .30-06 that I recently acquired that used to belong to my brother. The barrels tend to be free-floating and my .280 is boringly accurate with Hornady 139 BTSP. The detachable box magazines are very convenient. The actions cycle smoothly and quickly. I shoot lefty, so I had to get a left-handed safety put in them. Since there is just one action length, you might as well get a .270 or .30-06 and make the most of it. My .280 wears a Leupold Vari-X II in 3x9. Accurate, quick-shooting if need be, good reach, available in substantial calibers...what's not to like?


Exquisitely turdlike in all of his many manifestations!!

Resist much - obey little. Hayduke lives!
