Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Tell me about the Remington 7600

I believe they made them in the mid-late 90's. IIRC, they came in a green plastic hard case made by Remington. The case was big and fairly useless, but the gun....well, you know about the gun.

Might as well bring this up again. Another 7600 is finding a way into my gun vualt. I scored a NIB 300 Savage last week.I've waited for 2 years for this rifle.

I have one coming in the mail...35 whelen 7600 factory carbine(shot show special from vegas)3 or 4 years ago...still NIB.
Cannot wait til it gets here!

I read about the products and services of Barnes Custom Gunsmithing. I have a Remington 7600 Synthetic 30-06 Carbine. I sent them the trigger group about 3 weeks ago, got it back from them today, stuck it back in my rifle and boy is it nice! $68.50 included return postage. I don't have any connection to Barnes other than this trigger job they just did for me. I can highly recommend Don Barnes and his crew at www.barnesgunparts.com.

What is involved in taking out the trigger group?

From the site

PLEASE NOTE: SERVICE REQUIRES THAT "TRIGGER GROUP" ONLY BE SENT FOR SERVICE, SENDING OF COMPLETE FIREARM IS NOT REQUIRED ! (TRIGGER REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS AVAILABLE).

Easy deal Rich. Just tap those two pins out on the side of the receiver and the trigger group just falls out. Just like on an 870. I think you have to slide the action open. Anyway, the trigger group just pulls out the bottom of the receiver in one piece. Send it to Barnes just the way it come out of the receiver. Nothing to it, even for the likes of me!

Factory carbine?

Boy I would love to get my hands on one of those!

Yup the seller states that its a Factory with "Carbine" stamped on it...(not Chopped from 22")Apparently at the shot show in vegas a few years back Epps in Ontario Canada put an order in and a few months later 6 showed up and this guy found out about them and bought 2 of them! Can't wait to get er!!!

Yup I Received the Rifle in mail today...Carbine written right on the barrel!! What A Rare Beauty!! Very Pleased!!! I'll NEVVVVER part with this one....looked to long and hard for one, and it being still NIB is Awesome!!!

Yes what a rare find indeed! The guy that owns 35cal.com told me about these rifles. I think he said he sold the one he had but I can't remember.

I'm trying to make a trade for a 750 carbine in 35 Whelen with a SP-10 that I have that I never shoot. My son has staked out his claim for my 7600 35 Whelen rifle.

Enjoy you new rifle.

MIKE.

I see the Leupold VX-3 1.5-5 is a popular scope for the 7600. For a brush gun, do you guys prefer the regular or heavy duplex?

My wife inherited one from her father in .243, it will outshoot many bolt rifles in my safe. There I said it!

For those in the USA who doubt about the real 7600,7400 and 750 carbines here are 3 750 in 35 Whelen with Bushnell red dot sight that i pre-zeroed for 3 hunters who mostly hunt wild boars in driven hunt under heavy cover and thick bushes. We always had carbines available in 35 in France even when not on the original US Remington catalog. Here this caliber is really liked in "battue" mostly in the south.

No flies on the 7600 IMHO. We bought this one years back for my brother, who is a lefty. It has been used quite a bit.
Barrel is to long for my taste. 20" should be plenty for the .308 Win.

No problems encountered - feeding and extracting is fine. Accuracy easily good enough for the hunting the rifle is used for (note the 2,5x Weaver).

I also have a Rem. 750 Carbine in .30-06. They have changed the magazines. The follower now actes as bolt stop.

So / So impression in the field for me, so far.

Grandpop and Son...

The 14 is all original mfg 1931 35 Rem.

I have hunted for years with a Marlin 35 Rem. but I think the 760 will be going out with me from now on..

Just a couple pins in the reciever, and moving the "cocking bar" enough to get the trigger out. Simple, if I can get it out withoug buggerin anything up, I know you can.

Much better than a 336.

Heavy.

Interesting stocks on those carbines Marseille. In particular, the foregrips. Never seen any foregrips like that on the 7600 before.
