[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 1268171, member: 12995"] While he's doing the work, I'd have him slap on a new Bartlein barrel in 24-26" length chambered in the new Nosler/SAAMI .280 AI. That would be a shooter of a 760. :cool: One of my good buddies has a 1981 model 760 in .270 that his dad bought new. It's in great shape for the age and how much it's been hunted with. Several years ago he had traded his nice scope that was on it, and has not had the money to replace it since he's a family man. So, I lent him my old Nitrex 3-10x50 scope that I had sitting in my safe and mounted it up and boresighted the scope for him, and we signed it in yesterday. He's enjoying it so far. Nitrex is no longer in business, but if you ever come across one, they're great scopes. They have a full brass erector set in it, and the glass is crisp and clear and comparable to most mid-range Nikon Monarchs I've looked through. [/QUOTE]
