For some unknown reason a remington 788 has been on my mind, I cant shake the thought so lets find one. Would Like it to be in either 7mm08 or 308. Let me know what you got. Thanks

I had one in 243. it was super accurate. I believe because the barrel had a constant taper . not like the pencil thin barrel guns.

Try Gunsinternational. I find the site has better prices than GB.

I shoot a 308 Carbine, a little heavy, but a very nice gun.

I bought a 30-30 on here not too long ago....WOW is all I can say. 1/2” gun at 100 with cheap core loc ammo. I’ve saw several in the calibers you want on gunbroker.

With apologies to the OP, but since since he isn't looking for a 30-30, I'll take a 30-30 off someone's hands.

Not trying to argue, friend, but the prices there, at least on 788's, sure don't seem any better to me.

I've got one basically new in fact with original box BUT in 22-250. Had 3 but going different route except for the one I've shot for 40 years and still matches my custom builds for accuracy.

I have a 788 308 carbine, nice shape, someone put a recoil pad on it, decent job. open to trades for a quality 22 rifle. no semi-auto's.
