I have a 788 complete action. I can't decide weather to sell or build a 260 on it. Most 788's are very accurate, even though they have design flaws that are suppose to make them inaccurate. What is the value of a 788 action w/ 1 mag, in the white? Is there more value if I build it (will I get my $$ out of it)?

Action: ??
Boyds stock: $100
Shaw barrel: $180
Fitting: free (I can do it)
Base and rings: $40
Finish: ?? maybe $100 maybe $200

The 788's that I see for sale are in the $450-$550 range. I don't know if this is because of any collector value or if this is all they will bring. I have never seen a custom one for sale.


Some is Good---More is Better----Too Much is Just Right
