What’s Included
- Remington Model 760 Gamemaster rifle
- 1 x 4-round detachable steel magazine marked "30-06"
- One-piece Weaver-pattern scope base (installed)
The 22 inch barrel provides a balanced profile that handles quickly in the field while retaining full .30-06 performance. Its pre-1968 serial range (166xxx) places this example firmly in the desirable early production run, before the Model 760 transitioned to the later 7600 series.
Remington’s 19-lug rotary bolt locks securely into the barrel extension, giving pump-action speed without compromising strength. The action cycles smoothly, and the detachable box magazine allows fast reloads and easy unloading.
Walnut furniture includes a pistol-grip stock capped with the factory ventilated recoil pad and a rear sling-swivel stud. The 17-groove walnut forend offers a positive hold even with gloved hands. Original iron sights—a ramped front blade and folding rear—remain in place, while the receiver’s factory drilling and tapping support the included Weaver base for optic mounting.
With more than one million Model 760 rifles produced, the Gamemaster holds a respected place among American sporting rifles. This 1964 specimen delivers that legacy with a solid bore, ready-to-mount scope base, and the reliability that made the 760 a mainstay in deer camps across the country.
