RE: 7600 remington
I have a 7600 carbine in 30-06 with a Williams peep sight. I was having difficulty getting low enough on the stock to see quickly through the peep since the 7600 comes with a raised comb. The older 760 had a straight stock and was actually made for open sights but the 7600 is set up for a scope. I didn't want to shave off the raised comb on a brand new gun so I called Remington. They sent me a straight stock from a 20 ga shotgun without the raised comb that perfectly matched the standard one in color and finish. I now have a 7600 that is set up similar to the 760. I painted the open (without the screw in) Williams sight red and installed a red fire dot front sight. I hunt in snow and the target aquisition is so fast with that set up. The accuracy with even the open peep is excellent since your eye automatically finds the center of the ring and I never found the recoil to beas bad as my Ruger 77 Ultra Lite in 30-06.
