A couple of years ago I got to a stand I wanted on the farm. I thought I was early but some guy beat me there. When I walked by him he was fussing with what seemed to be the newer 7600. Soon he got up and left the field saying his rifle was jammed!

I have shot 760's and they have been reasonably accurate but the triggers are not up to standard. Its one of those guns I don't want.



There's a group a couple states north of you that uses the 7600's almost exclusively - the Benoits, ever heard of them? I know their hunting isn't quite as demanding as setting up behind some hay bales (tongue firmly planted in cheek) but the 7600 seems to work for them. wink
