Has anybody had a trigger job done on their 760/7600?
If so, who did it, how much did he charge, and was it worth the price?
Asking because there is a guy on GB, $dealmaker, who is selling a 760/7600 "trigger service" for $65, plus the cost of shipping/insurance to and from Albany, OH, that he makes great claims for. Few dollars more: http://www.timneytriggers.com/shop/timney-remington-870-trigger-fix-replacement-trigger.aspx

Bob This carbine is set up for 'up-close and personal' in the spruce swamps in MI and WI and tracking jobs. Not much good in Kansas though. Oh, forgot to mention, it's in 35Rem. WTH? I didn't know about this one. I could easily see it coming home with me sometime. FAT CHANCE!

Paul, I understand completely... Anymore when my kid starts fondling a rifle I tell him to put it back where he got it. Otherwise the last time I'll see it is headed out the door.

The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

SCGN Another Grice Special, no doubt? They certainly do shoot well, don't they. WN Yeah, I think it cost $399 new in 2002. Crazy what they're bringing on GunBroker these days...

50 yards, 80 yards of course they didn't hear the safety you retard. You never get close to the fuggers and that doesn't surprise me a bit. You don't fool me Bob. And the big bucks aren't saying all you'd like to think they do about your hunting prowess either. Of course you shoot some big deer. You've got the money to hunt where they get big. You don't pay/travel to hunt where the bucks run small. I've got a friend here with a very impressive trophy room. Like you, he's hunted all over the continent and the world. Come deer season HERE he doesn't produce anything that impressive and he knows it. I've made him look like a rank beginner here season after season and he knows that too. That's just silly Blackheart. You cast a pretty wide net with that statement. A good Hunter is a good Hunter, period. I've ran around and hunted the same country as you and taken many deer and still do. Saying because someone has money they can be less of a hunter is ridiculous. Bob takes bucks everywhere and hunts his butt off in the woods and spends the time being proficient with his equipment. This safety non sense is just that, non sense.

I don't have a dog in this fight, but I that think that it is easier to "hunt" deer in KS/NE/SD because there are more deer and less cover. It is nothing special to see 100+ deer in the harvested soy bean fields along the Platte River here in Nebraska. The catch being that most of the land is privately owned and permission to hunt can be difficult, if not impossible, to obtain.

While there are indeed guys like that, and I hate to rain on the blackheart-narrow-minded-local-yokel parade, Bob's simply not one of those guys.

We had an opportunity to hunt along the Platte River for bow, but did not go. We went for gun and hunted along the South Loup river. From what I saw, I agree with you, especially coming from Illinois. However, I never seen such spooky deer in my life. You could be 300+ yards away driving down a road and when you stop, they all go tail up and take off. I am guessing the area we hunted has it's fair share of road hunters... Matt

Despite being illegal, road hunting is common in Nebraska.
