Remington ~ 788 ~ .44 Magnum
Description: This USED Remington Model 788 bolt action rifle is chambered in the classic .44 Remington Magnum and comes with its original 3 round detachable magazine. The barrel stamping shows the year of manufacturing to be 1967 making it a first production run as the Remington Model 788 line was produced from 1967-1983 and the .44 Rem Mag model was only made from 1967 to 1970. It was marketed as an affordable yet accurate hunting rifle and was renowned for its accuracy. The Remington 788 has two distinguishing design features. The first is the bolt which has nine lugs in three rows of three lugs each. They lock into the receiver behind the magazine well. Due to this design, the bolt handle lifts only 60 degrees on opening giving more clearance for scopes compared to the 90 degrees required for the Model 700 and other two-lug rifles. The bolt travel is also reduced because of the rear lugs making it a "short throw" bolt action. The second distinguishing feature is the receiver. It has a smaller ejection port than similar bolt-action rifles, and no bolt lug raceways. The single stack magazine design yields a smaller feed opening in the bottom of the receiver compared to rifles using a double stack magazine well. When machining of these smaller ports is complete there is more steel remaining in the receiver between the ejection port and adjacent feed port, and significantly more steel overall where all receivers have the least strength. These characteristics combined to make the Remington 788 receiver more rigid and stronger than most making it a very accurate rifle.
