I have one of these and it handles and shoots very well. Very smooth action.
If you just want it as a shooter and not a collector, I'd go for it. I'm thinking an offer of $350 would allow you to bring it home.
If you didn't want the scope on it, just get some filler screws. The stocks on these older guns tend to have a little more drop so with that scope mounted so high, that could be a problem...or maybe not.
Taking a couple of inches off the bbl would make it even handier! For some reason, the pumps that I have cut down seem to shoot even better. Might be the shorter stouter bbl or the fact that it wears a new crown. Maybe both.
Hope you get it.

WN, yesterday I offered $399, what he is asking, if he would let it go with 3 boxes of Remington 200gr PSP Core Lokt's and he turned me down.

Yeah, the new run of Remington 35 ammo that recently hit the shelves is pretty spendy.
Are you going to load for it?

I've been looking for a 760 in 35 Remington for years as I have a Weaver pivot mount for a 760. wink_man: Several of my 35Rems, a 358Win, and a 35W wear the old Weaver pivot mounts. They serve a special purpose and they work well, too! WN I have one for a 760 on an 870 slug gun that I drilled and tapped the receiver for myself. You're right, they do work and they do hold zero, despite what gun writers of the day said about them.

I've killed many deer with a pump shotgun, never a pump rifle. I'm diggin the pics! Shotgun or rifle, depending on where I am hunting, I feel like they are one and the same. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/14820PC260002.JPG)

I have one pivot base for a 742/760 and a set of pivot rings for it PLUS a spare set of rings if you don't have rings. my stuff too is brand new in the packages yet.

Here it is and its NICE! 760 35 Rem in the classifieds Saw it, and was tempted last year when it came up. I'd go for it, but i'm in Fl. for a couple of months so not close to my ffl, maybe when I get back if it's still around. Thank you for the heads up.

Roundoak, if you want that gun and need ammo, I have 2 boxes at home, older, but perfect condition and stored properly, one box Remington, one Winchester, both 200 grain, 39 rounds total, I think the winchester box is missing one round. You're welccme to it but I'm in Fl. and you'd just have to wait till the end of March when I get home to mail it out to you. Garry

I have 2 sets of rings. My Dad always used them and I did too when I was younger. My brother still uses them on his 760 270. I never had to to pivot the scope over to take a shot so eventually went away from using them. They are still cool.

Garry Garry, the LGS has their heels dug in on the price so I am walking away. Was not too crazy about the Williams side scope mount setup anyway. I appreciate your generous offer. Thank you and best regards, Wayne

I love looking at those old deer camp pics. Must have been a great time to be a hunter.
