Though not something you see everyday, pump-action rifles remain in production at a number of different companies—including Remington. Big Green is still building pump-action repeating rifles, and the 7600's modern machining and utility-driven design, paired with one of America's favorite deer cartridges, combines to create an excellent, if unorthodox, hunting firearm. You can learn more about the Model 7600 in the video embedded above, taken from the NRA Gun of the Week series and hosted by American Rifleman's Kelly Young.
