Well I got the almost new Mod 7600 in the other day. It was slim, trim and light. However...I should have known what I would do...I "still" didn't care for even the slight movement in the forearm and the longer forward reach to the proper hold on the forearm. I sold it w/o firing a shot. I have accepted I am not and never going to be a pump man. Instead, I found a listing for a nice old push feed Mod 70 FWT in 30-06. I have been looking for one that most resembled the one I shot my first cow elk with, over 20 yrs ago. It was the rebarreled rifle I gave my missionary friend in South Africa. I always liked the more open grip of the FWTs, makes a really fast handling rifle for still hunting to me. I am a sucker for Mod 700s , but have had several Mod 70's and this model always fit me better. So...I am looking for some of the newer powders from R17 on up to try. I have used both 4350s, R22, 4064 but want to see whats out there for the old warhorse. Thanks.
Why can't Remington make nice checkering like this?

Lovely rifle. A favourite of mine. I'm unable to help with QL for the moment. With the last update of Windows 10 all my computers insisted that I reload the program and it fails to load each time, even with the update. I hope to get it working in the next several days. For now...

That's a nice rifle Preacher. A few folks I know have one just like it. Both the old "push-feed" type as well as the newer BACO with CRF.
A friend named Shane has one of the older push-feed models in .30-06 topped off with a VX-I 2x7x33 scope. He has shot deer, elk, beef cattle and even a bison with both the 165 and 180 grain handloads and factory loads. I like a 24" barrel on my .30-06 rifles but this rifle along with the Ruger Hawkeye (both with 22" bbl) are handsome and handy enough to make me overlook the shorter tube.
Enjoy, you'll find that to be one of your favorite rifles!

Holy smokes. I'm gonna have to get some rl26. Wonder what it would do with a 180 bt...

Just as an FYI. I really believe, at least through my chrono'd loads, that the burn rate in QL on RL26 is wrong. I think it has it at .339 or so and my readings put it around .370
Not that it's not good stuff, it just means you should start lower than usual with your first batch of it.

Dewey- will do sir. It did well in my .270/150BT 22" BAR and in my 7mmRM/160 Sierra.
FJ- I normally like longer barrels myself but I can live with 22". My first FWT I mentioned above started in life as a 7x57...I could not get it to shoot well or consistently ( back in '94.) I decided to have it rebarreled to 30-06 but went with a 23", just to see how it felt. It was fine, but I like 24-26" on rifles as a rule. The only carbines I ever felt comfortable with are the leverguns, the little M1 and later the M16 and its M4 clones. Growing up in the Big thicket of East Texas I hunted with buckshot when young and 29 to 30" barreled shotguns and never had issues until I was (a) getting in and out of the truck/jeep or (b) a box stand, ha. We ran rabbits with beagles, squirrel hunted and jumped up hogs with those long barrels too.

I'd imagine RL23 would be right in the sweet spot. Might not have as much compression as 26. 17 does look really good across the board though. Can't wait to see what you come up with. That's a sweet little rifle. We have one of them in a 7x57 Mauser. Shoots very nice for us.

Preacher,
I have this exact same rifle in 30/06 , around 1986-87 vintage, and it really is a shooter. My 2 best loads for it are rather old school but never the less very effective.
150 gr NBT, 51.0 grs IMR 4895, 3.330" OAL, CCI 200, 2850 fps
180 gr NP, 58.0 grs H4350, 3.315" OAL, CCI 200, 2735 fps
These were generated in the summer heat of Louisiana so should be good to go (with proper load work up) in the colder climes of Utah.
Prayers for your mother.
Good shootin
Jimbeaux

Thanks jimbeaux ( I was raised between Beaumont and Houston, so I "know" what good Cajun food is, especially the Cayenne Boudain down in Crowly!) My mom has been fading since July. I'm an only child so I have had her up here since 2005. Shes been in a nursing home the last 9 years. In a way I've had 5 women I have had to juggle my time and attention to....My Mom, Wife, two grown daughters and my Church, ha. Thank God for His Grace! whew.

One of my favorite quotes is "You can't buy happiness, but you can buy boudin, and that's kind of the same thing."

Preacher: Simplify your life!!!
Basically the ONLY load you will ever need!
Or the 168 TTSX at 2800 fps or so. Go for accuracy!!!!!!!!!
I use only one load in my 30-06
165 Partition 57 gr H4350 at 2800 fps. NOTHING stops this bullet.

That's my EVERYTHING load too!
Jimbeaux, Preacher - I spent some time in Houston a few years back. Papa's BBQ on FM 1960 was one of my favorite places to go. And Boudain well, that's the best kept secret in the Cajun food world in my opinion!
Sorry to hear about your Mother friend. No matter how prepared one might think they are, we are never quite ready to see someone go.
Take care -
Dale

Preacher,
the 180 gr Nosler Part , H4350 load I recommended is a true 1/2 moa load in my rifle, so if it is accuracy you want, that is the one I would go with. The 150 gr Ballistic Tip, IMR 4895 load is MOA.
Now for your guys commenting on boudin, a typical Cajuns brunch or lunch is 2-3 links of boudin, 1 large scoop of cracklins and a Dr. Pepper. You talk about good, cher!
