Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Remington 760/7600

+1 on what Mike says. I too have no idea what hanger you are talking about either. I believe the 760 is the better built gun. Given a choice, I'd search for a pristine used 760 over a new 7600.

It's my understanding that they changed the bolt design/lugs on the 7600 to actually improve the way a 740/7400 semi auto feeds, as both are built on the same action and are of the same design, but I don't feel the change improved the 7600 over the 760 at all.

As far as not being scope friendly, the 760 Carbine at the bottom of this pic with a Leupold Vari X III 1.5X5 mounted in low rings has been killing whitetails without issue since 1979.
