I decided to do most of my hunting this year with a 760 06. After a season of use and 2 deer with it I gotta say, I love the darned rifle. It shoots right around MOA with several loads, handles great, and it's easy to carry. Deer #1 Deer #2 How many fans of the pump rifles are here?

I really like the 760's. I could really dig one in either .300 Savage or one rebored to 9.3 x 62.

Vintage lever guns are more better.....unless you're from Minesoda..... Something like a nice old Model 64 would be good......

Cool thread! I have carried them a bit but the forces were not upon me and I was skunked. But I have a 280 760 now so will try again! I like pumps. I would like the M64 Winchester, too but they never chambered it in 270....
The 280 Remington is overbore.
The 7 Rem Mag is over bore.

I like my one and only pump rifle, a 760 in .35 Rem.
When I die I hope I don't start voting democrat.

Never owned a pump rifle, strange cause I love pump shotguns... If I were looking at hunting much in Pa. or W.VA like I used to, I think I would buy a nice slide action.. But it looks like those days are behind me for the most part..
