Thanks for the replies. I am going to continue to check into this question I have about the metal buttplate because articles I read say that Remington stopped putting metal buttplates on their 760s in 1968. Mine looks original. Since its snowing and nasty outside, this is a good time to check this out. Anyone else that can explain this metal buttplate on a 1976? rifle, please let me know! Thanks! Ken
