[QUOTE="Teri Anne, post: 2636607, member: 118816"] It is interesting that as inaccurate as the normal 742 was, the 760 was a tack driver. A friend of mine inherited a 760 in .270 from a good friend. When he got it, it showed years of wear on the outside. When we went out to shoot it just to see what it would do we were amazed that it shot less that 1 MOA with a beezlebob (el cheapo) scope on it. With a shooter like that he refurbished it, had it re blued in a high gloss finish and refinished the stock to better than factory new and put a Vortex 4 x 16 x 44 scope on it. It is a sub MOA , 0.70 shooter with Federal Premium 130 gr Nosler Partitions and similar. Many a magnificent bucks have fell prey both before and after the the refurbishment. [/QUOTE]
