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 !

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
