Gave my brother my beloved 788 223 because he gave me his model 12 20 gauge to give my middle daughter for Christmas. Then he sold me an American in 223 with a 20 inch barrel super cheap. It doesn't shoot like the 788, but its still minute of gopher, handy as hell, and since both were pickup guns, I will feel better if the American ever gets stolen knowing my 788 is safe at his house.
