If you bolt floppers can hit these PA deer on the run with only one shot every time once we scare the [beeep] outta 'em the first couple of hours of rifle season, more power to ya! LOL! I have bolts too, and use 'em here, but I think the 760 is the PA State Rifle. Can't say much about the 750/740/742 - we can't use semi rifles here to hunt. I like my 760's - shoot well enuf for hunting distances, esp. with reloads, and fast follow-up shots. My groundhog load is under 3/4 inch w/ 3 shots @ 100 yards. Deer load is right there too. I think those 7615's/223's would be the cat's s*&t for varmints here too. Once they get the price down $700 vs. $300 for a good used 760 in any other caliber is a bit salty for me.
Funny, never thought my '06 760 kicks more than my other 06's!?!?!?! But a recoil pad on all of them would be welcome. Get the 760, and if you notice that you're even pumping it when shooting at game, you're not excited enuf! Good Hunting!
I was just thinking that the Remington 760 rifles were THE PA deer rifles ! I live in Ohio but have some property in Greene County Pa . If you meet someone in Pa that is a deer hunter , there is a real good chance that he or she owns at least one Remington pump rifle !
