Thanks the pics and links. Nice looking guns Wink man.

I am strongly leaning towards a 760 but unfortunately there are no 760's in my area. I'll trust my memory of the one I handled a few years ago.
I have my eye on a couple of 760 carbines in 30-06. One is a 1955 and the other somewhere between 1951 and 1967 based upon the its serial number and according to the info below.

1951-1967 1,000-541,000
1968-1975 6,900,000-7,499,999
1975-1978 A6,900,000-A7,499,999
1978-1981 B6,900,000-B7,499,999

Referring to the info above, a 760 with serial number higher than the 1955/1967 group would have the telescoping, free floated action and less drop in the comb?

It that is true, neither of the two carbines I am looking meet my criteria.
