Moving covers a lot or a very little amount of ground.

I had a 760 carbine .30-06 for a few years back in the 80's. Good shooting little bugger but man was it LOUD ! It also shot a basketball sized ball of orange flame that would about blind you if you shot at dawn or dusk. I rolled 3 deer with 3 shots in about 2 seconds with it on a deer drive once.

will be tested side by side to a rem 700 with 2 different shooters both shooting both guns and shooting factory win 180 and 165 grain pp's.Think it should be a fair test. The range will be 50 yards then 100 and 200 which should conclude enough accuracy results

Laughing here, I was wondering if anyone would mention the 'flame' that comes from a carbine, mine does the exact same thing.

They come from everything. I don't even notice the flame. I wear hearing protection so it's really not bad at the range or gravel pit.

Regarding the one listed:
Only one year of production-1979. Stock and forearm the same as the 7600 which was yet to be introduced. New style rear sight. Screw hole spacing still the same as the 760.
Only 11,932 were produced.
I have several of these in 35Rem, one rechambered to 358Win and cut to 19".

I need to kill one with the .25-20...

The fanciest pump guns that I've ever seen, either in a museum or in the field, was Bearrr264's Grandfather's hunting rifles, a 14 1/2 in 44-40 for deer and a 14 in 35 for bigger game. All highly engraved, with premium grade wood and checkering.

FYI: If any one is looking for one.
I saw a Model Six .308 complete with See Thru Mounts and a Bushnell scope in a Gun shop in Lenoir, NC today.
It was marked 675.00 on the tag.
If anyone is interested I can get them the contact info.

The Remington 760 should be on the Pa state flag..  Doc
