1972 Vintage Remington Model 788 Rifle in .22/250 Caliber SOLD
Description: 1972 production Remington Model 788 chambered for the .22/250 rifle cartridge. This moderately priced, bolt action rifle with detachable magazine is commonly referred to as "Remington's budget tackdriver". It features a single-column detachable magazine holding 3 rounds and a nine-lug rear-locking bolt. This design allows for the bolt handle only needing to lift 60 degrees on opening, giving more clearance for scopes compared to the 90 degrees required for the Model 700 and other traditional two-lug rifles. Because of the rear-locking action, the front of the receiver retains more steel where it mates with the barrel. These characteristics combine to make the Remington 788 receiver more rigid and stronger than most, which increases it's accuracy potential all while keeping costs low. This 788 is in excellent condition with a few minor handling dings and safe marks. The barrel exterior shows some spots of cold blue touch-up. The bore is nice and bright with strong rifling, and the rifle sports a wonderfully smooth-working action. This rifle is equiped with a Bushnell 10x40 scope. The upper turret is cracked but the optics are clear and the scope seems to be functional. It has a hardwood stock sporting a strong, straight grain throughout, and is in good condition overall. This is an excellent rifle produced in the United States for the American hunter/shooter. SOLD Manufacturer: Remington Model: 788 Caliber Info: 22-250 |
