The classic Amish Machine Gun is in .30-'06. Factory free-floated barrel What the heck is this? Tzone makes the correct call. For his effort, he wins a 2012 Ford Mustang spare tire valve cover. Redeemable at Lambeau field at a date YTBD

I bought a new 7600 Carbine 30-06 Spr. a few months ago. I've shot Remington 165 gr. PSP Core-Lokt and Winchester 165 gr. Super X ammo. Both shot pretty well. However last weekend I tried Federal Fusions 165 gr. and they shot the best of the bunch. I'm shooting 1 1/2 inch groups with the Fusions. That will more then likely get better as my back gets better. I can't crouch that well.
My carbine has the hard butt plate on the end of the stock. Even with that, it's a pleasure to shoot from the bench. Of course I also use a slug gun some time too. I've yet to shoot a rifle that recoils like a 12 ga. shooting a 1800 to 2000 fps sabot slug.
I figure my 30-06 carbine has velocity's close to the 308 Win. rifle because of the shorter 18.5" barrel. I wanted a short barrel carbine. A cut down 280 Rem. would have been my first choice, being my favorite cartridge, but I couldn't fine a nice one in the time frame I needed to buy one.
Both the 308 Win. and 30-06 Spr. are great cartridges, however I'd buy the 30-06.
Just my $.02, NYH1!

165gr anything has been a thing of beauty out of every .30-06 7600 I've had.
I usually use core lokts but the Fusions were great and cheaper so I switched. I ran Fed. Fusion 140gr in my 7600 in .280rem last year and it was 2 bang flops.

any chance you can PM the store info? If you didn't go for the 30-06 I'd like to scoop it up.
Thanks!

David, if it's an old style 760 it was made in 1955. If it's the newer style it was made in 1981. 1981 was the last year 760's were made.
