The 760 is more desirable not less. Only the very earliest ones had the comb dropped for iron sight use. The 760 had the interrupted locking lugs like Weatherby Mark V's and that makes for a smoother action. I've found the 760's to be more accurate on average than the 7600's. I live in the middle of the Gamemaster universe here in PA Dutch country and I don't know anybody that likes the 7600 better than the 760. I know plenty of guys who are quick to say the 760 was the better rifle. They quit making 760's in 1980 and started making the model 6. The model 7600 came out a year later for Kmart shoppers only. Shortly thereafter the model 6 was canned and the 7600 took over as the pump offering.
