Heads up for anyone looking for a nice early 760 in .35 Rem. LGS just took one in. No pictures yet on their website but it's very nice, I'd say metal 95% with a some finish flaking on the buttstock.. It has sling studs added but is not drilled and tapped for scope or receiver sight. Don't find them like this often. https://shop.williamsgunsight.com/ecommerce/p/used-remington-760-35rem-807698*I have no connection with this shop

One of the guys that hunt the property next to my buddies pulled out a 760. That had a ton of little notches on it. Like 30 or 40. I have always heard of notches on an outlaws gun, cowboy days. It was cool to see one.

Looking at the 760 in 358 Win for doe season but my old Steyr may win the prize hunting trip this week. Be Well, RZ.

For the first time in nearly 20 years I did not carry a pump rifle in the deer woods. Never even took it out of the safe. For the first time in 14-15 years I did not kill a deer here in the northeast. Coincidence????

They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

But I helped drag 2 deer that were killed with pumps and I found my brother a near mint Rem 14 chambered in 35 Remington. I would have thought that just those gestures would have placated the gods. They are a fickle bunch I see.

I have had a few 7600’s but no so many 760’s. I sold one a while back and have sellers remorse. I put another up for sale at a decent price and it didn’t sell. So, I decided to see how it shot. It is no longer for sale at the price I was asking. It shoots great with everything I’ve tried. It happens to be chambered in the great 30-06.
I prefer classic. Semper Fi I used to run with the hare. Now I'm envious of the tortoise and I do my own stunts but rarely intentionally

This one is older than I am and I've been deer hunting 48 years. It is an '06 and it only seem to like Remington 150gn. I guess that's appropriate. I have one more 760 & a 141. It's always a coin toss as to which one to carry.

I found a 2 nice 760's at a LGS last week. More than I'd like to spend but less than the current going rate. Both were good clean specimens. Not shot a lot.
I'm going to have a look on Friday after a site visit I have in the area.

I used to see a lot of hunters using Rem. pumps and autoladers but, no much anymore.
Why do I have to press 1, for English?

Well, I carried my Remington 700 for most of the season looking for bucks. The last Saturday I gave up the horn hunt and pulled the new .300 savage out. First drive of the day put a little one down for a nap. Didn't need anymore as my boy and father tagged several each already. So I continued looking for horns for the rest of the day. Always a joy to carry a 760, was glad to find this deal and happy to smack a little doe with it. -Jake

Nah, just normal 760's in 30-06. No carbines. Both from the late 70's or early 80's. Both in good shape. One for $600 and one for $800. The one for $800 has a Tasco scope on it. So, I'm trying to figure out why it's $200 more. It's newer and if I was really picky, not as nice as the other.
