Awesome! Remington quit making the 788 because it was more accurate than their other actions. I bet that baby handles nice and the brake makes her shoot soft! That tactical stock is really something.

If you need to castrate flies at 200 meters, this one will do it.

1/2" -28 threads on the barrel make it easy to fit a flash hider or can, as well.

Factory barrel. Shoots S&B, Rem, and Win ammo very nicely. It loves my 147 gr match hand loads. Nothing like an oval shaped 3 rd group to make you smile.

They are famous in BR for their inherent accuracy,though they'll rattle a Juenke off the work bench.

Hi CAFR,
Who makes the stock please? I've one in 22-250, tack driver but original stock is awful. Do they make synthetic hunting stocks?
Many thanks

The bullets!
You are not allowed to use winchester 147 gr btfmj in a "rural sniping" situation..
Good grief.
It's a great life if you don't weaken..

A Tactical Rifle in a Tactical stock,wearing black Tactical paint isn't going to be it's Tactical best outside or in the light.

Windage adjustable base eliminates the need for a side turret also, nice touch.

On Urban rigs,it's to facillitate shooting around corners.

Should the time come where urban folk are sniping at each other with custom 788's (?), just keep that chit urban. We country folk would shoot the bearer of such on sight.....

I like the odds of her coming in a distant second to a stock 788.
