We may have crossed paths . You are most certainly in the minority of the 760 users I crossed paths with . Our center of operations back then was Newfoundland and Hamlin to a lesser degree . FWIW I ran it three or four guys that had one of the later Remington pumps the 7600 I think it was all in 35 Whelen . I killed more deer in PA with a Remington Model 7 in 260 REM than with any other cartridge . Never did kill a bear up there .
