Upon inspection, I do not believe this to be the issue. There isn't really all that much wear in that area of the forend. I think it's the metal tubing part of the action bar assembly that the stock rests on, that is loose around the tube. Might have to bite the bullet and take it to a smithy...

I'll have to check my wear patterns when I get home. Thank you so much for the advice and taking the time to put the pictures up :) Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

I'd like to see that work you did, and see where exactly you placed it. Thank you! I'll have to look at the o ring possibility as well. Just don't want something that will fail in the field Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

Just created another post in general discussion about this. It does make contact w the barrel and makes a LOT of noise. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

So im trying to improve this old 60's 760, and I've come across an issue. The forend creates a pretty hideous rattle whenever the rifle is moved at all. I took the wood off and the action bar assembly itself seems to have some play to it around the action tube causing the action bars to rattle...

I know a few places that I'm able to get out and go to, but CDFW wouldn't be too happy about it. Haven't been out into los Padres much but I hear there are a few decent areas for birds. There's a lot of turkey, hogs, and deer. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

If you're up in the central coast area, let me know. I'm also pretty new at it all and looking for people to get out there with. Might have to wait till next season due to my son being born here in a couple months but I stay in touch Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

So I ended up getting a great deal on a Redfield revolution 4-12x40. Probably keep it at 4, use the higher power at the range for long distance shots. Got some weaver rings that mount right onto the rifle. I'll start taking it to the range here soon :). Thank you everyone for the suggestions...

It's got some play to it. Thinking about either making a new one or purchasing a new piece for it. Doesn't seem to effect my bench accuracy, I just hate that little rattle it gives off. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

Yeah I'm definitely in a state of "I don't wanna, you can't make me." Good to know the years have seasoned my maturity :) Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

30-06. And of course I have a ton of it and can't use it in the field since kommifornia went lead free :) Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

I've heard some of theirs and Leopold are pretty decent. Just want to make sure the scope and ring hold up to that mule kick, the 760 throws back :) Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

So I inherited this early 60's Win. 760 from my grandfather a few years ago. It shoots true until the barrel is hot, which I hear is common. Looking to add some range to it and use it for deer and hog hunts. Anyone have a suggestion for a solid mount / ring / scope set up that won't break the...

+1 on the 870. I have that and a 760, the pump action 30-06 rifle that's really similar to the 870 shotgun. Both are from the 60's and they still shoot true. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk

If you come down towards San Luis Obispo, there's plenty of hunting in the Los Padres Nat Park. Lots of happy deer, hogs, quail, cotton tail, turkey, etc. Not sure about right near Monterey, but San Luis is only a couple hours south, if that. Sent from my HTC One mini using Tapatalk
