Excellent shooters, very accurate. My 760 '06 was produced about the time Eisenhower got elected to a second term for president and that gun is home either on the range or in the woods to this very day. I've shot a friends 7600 in 243 and it to was great in the accurate dept.

A one peice weaver scope base and skip those see through rings and life will be good. I thought someone had posted a long time ago the pictures of how to totally break down the 760/7600, but it is really simple.

Good luck and I hope your neighbor gets the gun he remembers.
