I’ve carried a 760 Gamemaster for over 30 years. Shooting 180 grain PSP Coreloks mainly. I’ve taken over 100 deer with it. Only lost 1 because I leg shot it. It’s a good woods and long range gun out to about 300 yards or so, maybe further just never tried.

Dammit. Y’all got me wanting a 7600 30/06 carbine and I’m freaking broke....
I am searching for one now. After owning a full size 7600 I am itching for a Carbine. Great balance and very constant shooting guns.

For hunting 100 YARDS and under in thick cover I would like to hear your opinion and why. There is no such thing as a "brush busting boolit". Any projectile you attempt to fire through brush is likely to be deflected and miss and/or partially or even fully mushroomed and depleted of energy if it finds the target. Beyond that, the rifle you choose is personal preference.

When young and dumb I loaded a 140 7mm mag going over 3400 fps in a Styr Pro-hunter. It turned the crosshairs in my Pentax light seeker.

The Styer never showed any signs of pressure, even though there was a lot of it. I shot the same load out of a Model 70 classic and it blew the primer and the bolt stuck. All guns are not created equally.

(R22, 64.5g with a COAL of 3.3385) I’m loading 74.5grs of re22 with a 24” barrel, no pressure signs and shoots 1/2” 3 shots, really no need for any more though I feel I could get 3500 easily. I don’t go off col length, I measure chamber and seat off the ogive, seating these .060” off the lands at 2.730”.

In Alabama, any gun that you can mount a light to and is accurate from your stand to the corn pile.
