Man, just when I think I've nailed down what my next rifle is going to be, you guys remind me of something else I want to put in my hands!

When I lived in NY state I hunted deer with a 760 .30-06, I always wanted a 760 in .257 Roberts as I feel that is an ideal combination for NY or PA deer hunting.

Vintage lever guns are more better.....unless you're from Minesoda..... Something like a nice old Model 64 would be good...... Now jist one cotton pickin' minute! I'm from Minnysoda and I've never owned a single 7400! AKA The Jam-A-Matic, or the Minnesota Machinegun, and I don't have a single set of see through mounts on any of my deer rifles! I even defy Minnysoda traditions by not owning a $35.00 Trashco scope!

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.. We gotta have a serious chat about that-pretty sure I'm headed out there next fall, and there will definitely be an empty bunk.

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.... Bob, I hear the 280 is almost as good as a 270  Almost. Rumor has it Whelen Nut used a 7600 in 270 on this one. ![[Linked Image]](https://i1185.photobucket.com/albums/z345/joan4321/Kansas 2015/IMG_4750_dad_2_zps7cdopyta.jpg)

My Remington Model 141 in 35 Remington handles beautifully.

My father in law passed away about 12 years ago and left us a 7600 .243 it is more accurate than my bolt guns.
I don't use it on deer though. It seems kind of like a girls rifle. Even my wife shot a .308.
Would the factory rebarrel it to something more manly like .338 Federal?
I like to do my hunting BEFORE I pull the trigger!
There is only one kind of dead, but there are many different kinds of wounded.

Marc, I had a 300wsm along as a backup and didn't really keep tabs on it. In all likelihood, pops used the WSM.

I have a 1954 M760 in 30-06 that was my Dad's. I've taken 2 or 3 deer with it. It'll get the job done but is not my ideal deer rifle. They seem kinda clunky to me, but this one shoots pretty well and was a real good shooter in it's day. Being a pump, it was cleaned alot from the muzzle and probably could use a re-crown job. There appears to be some rod wear. I use it for nostalgic reasons only. I have a barrel band sling stud on it too. It think the last year I used it was in 2004 when it turned 50, took a spike with it then.
