Before you buy any Remington semi-auto have it thoroughly disassembled by a competant gunsmith to see how worn the gun is. A 7400 in good shape works okay. You buy one that is worn out, (and most of them are or they wouldn't be selling them) it makes a good club and that's about it.
The BAR's are better guns in my experience. If recovery from recoil is a concern, you might consider the AR style guns in .308. Hornady's hot .308 ammo is in the power range of the .300 H&H mag.
I've worked on enough 742/7400 rifles to know there is nothing so worn out as a worn out Remington semi-auto. I've also sent more Remington semi-autos back to Illion, (including several NIB) because nobody could make them work, than any other rifle I ever sold. I've never sent a Remington 7600 pump back. They are basically the same design as the 7400 inside, but the manual operation makes a differnce in reliability when the guns get worn.
