could a remington 7600 hit a rabbit sized target at 50 meters with a decent scope ?
just how big are these rabbits ?

I haven't used the 7600 but I thought they were more accurate than most lever-action rifles, and not far behind the average hunting rifle?

The size of the red dot has been a problem for me too. It covers a rabbits head completely at 50 metres.


You hunting rabbits at 50 with a 308 scj ??
At least ya shouldn't have to clean up :sarcasm: :lol: :thumbsup: :drinks:


It was far worse than you think, it was a 416 Rigby and even the dog didn't get to eat the remains. It now has a 1.5 to 5 Leupold for some long range sniping.
