Are you crazy? a 76mm gun on the T-34 was not able to penetratethe frontal armor of a Panther at a distance. I believe even at a 100m it would be a lucky shot. Side shot is different of course, but distance is the key.
The 76mm gun on the T-34 wasn't all that great by 1943, It could no penetrate the Tiger frontally and sure as hell wasn't able to do the same to the Panther, especially the front of the turret.
The turret has the thickest armor, so a frontal shot to the turret would no doubt result in richochets.
