Not a deer, but I did get to try out the new 7600 in .358 this week: 180 grn Speer HotCore through the shoulders. Nice. I keep talking myself in and then out of a 358. Mostly because the short actions are so hard to find. I may end up sending a '06 to JES to make a 35W carbine if I do anything. I can load a 35W down to 358 but not the other way around. I think with the 7600/760s long VS short is just a magazine. I went with the 358 because I already have a Rem M7 in .350RM and I wanted something deer specific for drives and still hunting. I really wanted a 35Rem performance without the lack of brass issues.

Nice going Chuck. NICE RIFLE! I'd have to say, My 358 carbine, is my favorite 7600 when I hunt the local swamps. I've haven't tried the 180 Speers(Yet). I've been using 200 Hornady PSP over TAC.

THANKS!
The 180s are over TAC also, 2550 out of a 19" barrel.
Surprisingly destructive though.. I use Horn 200SPs over TAC in my 350 for deer and pigs at a little over 2860. I might try the 200s in the 358. I was worried about the 358 19" MV and expansion, but at the distances I'm using the 7600 for, it's not going to matter.

Chuckr Is your worried about expansion of the 200sps in your 358, the 200 rn will address that nicely. Hard to find in today’s market but they are out there. F01

Would anyone here be interested in a dedicated REMINGTON forum? Want to know how much interest is out there. I know there's a ton of knowledgeable people on the fire and I think it would be a great place for all the remington fans to hang out and learn and share what they know to others.

I've not found a need to use them in the 358 but I'm sure they would work rather nicely.

I figure I'll try them on next years pig hunt.. IF they come apart and ruin some meat, no great loss.

Believe a dedicated Remington Collectors Forum on the ‘fire would have a LOT more traffic. That said, I’ve been a member of RSA for over 10 years and visit the site 4 or 5 times a week.

Something new to play with. 110 year old model 14 in 30 Remington. I really really like this one.

What's not to like about that one! Good shooting, is that a Marbles sight by chance? Have the same thing on my 141.

I justified the cost of the gun on the fact i could sell the sight and get more than 1/2 my money back, but turns out I like it! Ha. You're like me. I did the same with a 141 in 35 Remington. Paid what was a good buy for it IMO back in 2018 and when I seen what those R-14's were bringing, I figured I got a super deal. Problem is for me it's not a very good justification because that sight is not coming off as long as I'm using the rifle. I like it too much. With it's flip down feature I initially left the factory rear sight in, but ended up putting a sight blank in it and just use the Lyman as it works way better for me.

When I think of pump actions...I think of over complicated actions with long flimsy connecting bars that love to bend and snap when something binds up. I have enough fun breaking down mossberg 500s at work for occasional cleaning... I dont want that headache from any of my personal weapons
