I've wanted a 7600 in .308 for as long as I can remember. Finally bought one about a month ago. I am real pleased with it's accuracy. The first time I tried to get a 3 shot group at 100 yards, I fired the first two shots and had an oblong hole. The third shot was just below the first two. It was about a 3/4 inch group. I am having a problem though. The gun is suppose to hold 4 rounds, so I guess that would be one round in the chamber and three in the magazine. If I put more than two rounds in the magazine, when I push the slide forward, it does not want to lock. If I have one or two rounds in the magazine when I push the slide forward, it does not seem to be a problem. And, if the slide is not locked forward, you can't pull the trigger. Anyone have an idea what the problem may be? Other than that, I love the gun. Hopefully it will be my main whitetail rifle.
