Remington 760 Carbine - 30-06 (Safe Queen)

Grew up with the Benoit Family of Vermont and Big Woods White Tail legends they all carried 760's..
Have a good friend who has been buying them up and re-barreling them in 9.3x62 for friends But says that the prices on the used market has made it difficult
Good Luck with your sale lovely rifle

Zephyr, did you know the Benoit’s? I’ve only read about them and own one of their books - incredible Hunters and they practiced (perfected) a true North Woods “style” of hunting that few others do: find a big track in the snow and walk it for Miles & Miles & Miles, jump the Buck and shoot it - often on the run.....impressive. Takes skill, knowledge, persistence, and physical stamina, also “Woodsmenship” because eventually you gotta find your way home !! And drag out a 200lb deer. Their 760s were open sights and from photos appeared “really beat up” but they were used as intended - to Hunt Hard. I admire their style a consider them “true hunters” in a class by themselves. They may never kill a B&C record but every buck they take is a real Trophy, few men could do what they do.....I wish I could !

Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
