Nice Remington 788 in 308 cal. Period correct Bushnell Sportview wide angle scope mounted on high rings allowing the option of using the original iron sights. Caldwell bi-pod, camo sling, scope cover and original metal clip included. The Remington 788 receiver is more rigid and stronger than most, if not all. These rifles are incredibly accurate surpassing Remington 700's and many other higher priced rifles. A rifle's accuracy tends to increase slightly as the rigidity of the receiver increases, as this slightly reduces barrel deflection during firing. Thus the Remington 788 has the structural foundation to be a very accurate rifle. I shot a 788 for years , wicked accuracy with proper hand loads. Only plastic on these rifles is the butt pad. These were Remingtons economy rifles which out shot much more expensive rifles. Thats why they were only made for 16 years from 1967 to 1983.
Slight blueing degradation on barrel. (See pic)
