The_Real_TCIII Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 I did some work for a buddy and he paid me with a rifle. She's an OG from the early 70s I believe. My first 30-06. I hate to say it but I find the basket weave sort of ugly so I need to wear it all off shooting big bucks Robhuntandfish, mowin, cervidchasers and 4 others 7
mowin Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 I hope you get enough big bucks to wear it off. Always liked the 760's. The_Real_TCIII 1
Moho81 Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 You'll forget about the basket weave the moment you pull the trigger and dislocate your shoulder. The Back 40, cervidchasers, The_Real_TCIII and 1 other 4
Lawdwaz Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 Google the serial number and see what the born on date is. I’m guessing late 70’s or early 80’s. I had a .308 like that but it had a lefty cheek piece and safety. I sold and now it’s probably worth millions or maybe not. Nice gun for you, Abe. 😂 The_Real_TCIII 1

Rusty Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 Sweet gun, enjoy wearing off that basket weave! The_Real_TCIII 1
Mike103 Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 When you find out the value of that rifle with the basket weave you won’t be looking for it to wear off. Lol.
cervidchasers Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 Switch the butt pad and enjoy it with a limbsaver or pachmyr..you will enjoy it.
Mike103 Posted September 28, 2024 Posted September 28, 2024 I have been shooting 7600’s in 35 rem and 35 Whelen since giving up my Remington 742 in 2004. Recoil is not a problem. Don’t cut that stock for a recoil pad. It will be worth shit altered. The_Real_TCIII 1
