788 Rem

[Larryjk]

I know that all of the 788s I see are loved by their owners, including the one I own. The one I have is in .222 Rem and I bought it for my grandsons to start in centerfire use. They love it because they can always hit with it.
I think the reason the 788 is so accurate is because they have an abnormally long barrel shank sticking back into a stiff action. No one has ever said a 788 is a light rifle. Look at a 788 action and then look at a benchrest action. Very similar.
