I've got one with the parkerized finish and synthetic stocks, I call it my knocking around gun lol. I don't worry about scratches or dings.I shoot 165 grn tbbc's through it and I love it. I have been wanting to get my trigger worked on also, but I don't really use this gun much where I have to shoot long range. One of my bolt guns has a timney trigger and the other has a trigger job, so me saying that I love the 7600/760 is saying something!
