1920's Remington m14 in .35 Remington shooting 200gr Core Lokt's . Sight is a rare Redfield 102 made to utilize the two pre drilled holes where you might normally see a tang type sight mounted. Took this deer on the 26th of December 2022.
Grumpy old man with a gun.....Do not touch . Better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6. Don't bother my monument and I'll leave yours alone.

This Remington 14 1/2 in 44/40 is in the lineup for this coming deer season. I didn't get a chance to carry it this past year, but I have found a spot that is perfect for the 44/40. I have no doubt that the old pump is up to the challenge.
My son bought me this Grice special run 7600 7mm-08 several years ago. I've had a feed problem on and off with it. It's a problem with the magazine seating depth. I tried adjusting the feed lips on both of my magazines. This evening I tried switching the trigger group with my 760 and it didn't work. The magazine catches are different. I compared the older 760 magazines and saw the notch for the magazine catch to hold the mags in place was deeper with the older mags. I used my Dremel to deepen the notch and the mags seem to seat better. My next range trip will tell me if it's fixed.
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong. Getting into reloading to save money is like getting married for free sex.

Very nice rifles.
I bought one in about 2003 or 2004.
30-06, 2nd shot the extractor pulled out. Took it to an authorized gunsmith and he put a new extractor in. On about the 2nd or 3rd shot with replacement extractor it pulled out so back we went to the gunsmith. He checked it out and said the chamber was rough so he sent it back to Remington for a new barrel.
Got it back and sent it down the road. At times I wish I still had it but I had a very sour taste in my mouth from the incident.
The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!
thumbcocker, I called Remington last summer and was told they would be available before the end of 22. I called again in January of this year and was told they MIGHT be available this fall. Which probably really means next year.

Was at a gunshow last Saturday in pa and they had a bunch of remington 760s the cheapest was around $850. Most were right around $1200. Have two 760 but I dont think their worth that much. Is this the going rate on them. Got my 760 30/06 about 5 years ago for $250.
The vanilla 30-06 is coming down, but any other caliber or especially if it's a carbine are still stupid, but the new Remington isn't in any hurry to make the new ones I guess so the trend continues. I almost had a weak moment on a GB 760 in 35 the other day that had a really nice piece of wood on it. It had a BIN of $950 and I was tempted, but decided to pass at that price. It was gone a couple hours later when I looked.
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.
For anyone wondering where the pumpgun market is going, there was a live auction yesterday in central PA that had a bunch. I wasn't there but this was posted on another site by someone who was. Insane IMO, but auctions tend to do that to people. I'm also told it was heavily Amish/Mennonite so that may have something to do with it.

Anybody want t9 buy an excellent 760 ADL in 257 made in 06/54 for $1,500?
You might be able to flip it and make some pocket money if those prices represent the current market value.
I waited over 2 months for a response to our PM Jeff. Thanks for the non replies! GLWYS bud.
No disrespect intended, sometimes I lose track of my PMs. Now that you've reminded me I'll go back and look for our PMs. The list was emailed to you today.
