The Remington Model 760 Gamemaster is a pump-action, centerfire hunting rifle made by Remington Arms from 1952 to 1981, replacing the earlier Model 141 and later succeeded by the Model 7600 series. It used dual action bars, a removable aluminum trigger group and a 4-round detachable box magazine, and was chambered in cartridges including .30-06 Springfield, .270 Winchester, .308 Winchester and .243 Winchester. Its original bolt used 14 locking lugs in an interrupted-thread pattern, a design that proved problematic and was replaced with conventional lugs in the Model 7600; more than one million Model 760 rifles were produced.
