Well...Just purchased this gun for hunting the swamps in Maine ......I had a Monster get away from me this year...I was deep in a ceder swamp and got a glimpse of a giant buck...i couldnt get em in my scope,,by the time i did he was gone. Its so thick up there a scoped gun is basically worthless except if your're watching a clearcut.

Anyone know anything about these guns and their accuracy?

Ghost, Pump guns are not as accurate as a single shot or a bolt action rifle, but in skilled hands they are shoot fairly well. Seeing as how you will be shooting it, the deer in Maine need not be worried. Ha Ha!

Are you going to put a good set of peep sights on this gun? I am seriously considering purchasing a 7600 in 270 or 30-06 to use in Maine. We will have to get together and come up with a way to practice running shots on deer.

Ill agree with you,,Im not the best shot,,never was..but i figure i can spray the bullets at em next year with this pump.

I think i'm gonna put a Williams peep sight on it.

Take a tire with a peice of carboard in the center of it, make a target on the carboard and roll the tire. Works well if you have a hill you can roll the tire down. Its pretty fun...

Looks like me and ghost are going to be buddies, so I wanted to help you out with this post.

I don't know anyone here, so I don't want to hurt anyone's feelings here. But jr520 you are wrong about pump rifles. Who ever gave you your information doesn't know much about guns.

When comparing actions, bolt, lever and pump's. Yes, abolt action is more accurate - at 1,000 plus yards.
But at 100 - 300 yards, a pump action is probably more accurate than a bolt action. A pump action is made from STEEL , it is less likely to warp, move or be affected by the weather.

I read that article in a old issue of American Rifleman. If there was something erronious about that information, I am sure that one of thier 1 million members would have disputed it.

I highly doubt if you would notice 1/8 of 1 inch at 100 yards while hunting in the woods. Nor could you outshoot me with a .270 or 30-06 at 100 or 200 yards. But if you would like to try, you are welcome to come to my place any day of the week and we will see if it is true or not.

I didn't want to step on any toe's here or cause any hard feeling. I mearly wanted to point out to you that you are wrong.

There are always two sides to every discussion, and depending on which article you read, you will get differing opinions on this debate. I myself do not put a great deal of weight on what I read in magazine articles. I tend to go more by personal experience. In my opinion, and experience, overall bolt action rifles are much more accurate than pump guns.

Just my opinion though.

Thanks for your side of the debate, Mighty Deer Hunter. Or is it 300 Win Mag? [Confused] [notalk1]

I've had a few Remington pumps through the years, and most of them shoot 1 1/2"- 2" groups at 100 yards,,,,Certainely good enough for any hunting purposes here in Pa. My most accurate one at the moment is a Model 7600 in 35 Whelan ...It gives me 1" for a three shot group...I once had a 270 Model 760 that shot that well with Remington 130 gr. factory loads....I've had bolt actions that couldn't do that ! .....Ken
