Comparing the 7400 too the BAR is like comparing a Yugo too a SL500. The Remington is "what it is" while the BAR is a quality piece of equipment that is capable of shooting bolt action like groups and has the strength to hold up too generations of abuse. The new Long/Short Tracs are that much better IMHO because they are so light and the looks are growing on me.

The Benelli autoloader is a shooter and quality likewise, but I just don't care for that "Eurotrash" styling. As for the 7600, if I had to use either I suppose I would take the pump over the auto. But neiter I have ever seen or been around were decent shooters. Both the 7400 and the 7600 have always been marketed to a distinct type of rifle buyer and most of them are not season long, serious shooters who are concerned about quality and accuracy. They are more concerned with spraying bullets allover the woods and that fact is obvious by the fact that they are more concerned with their 2nd shot than their 1st shot in the first place.

Sorry but like Big E said, "That's the way the mop flops"!!!
