remington model 788
I have the opportunity to buy a 1972 Remington Model 788 in .308 Winchester. The owner says the weapon hasn't been fired more than a couple of dozen times, and I believe him. It is in very good shape, with a Deerfield 3-9x40 scope, a very nice leather sling and a box of unused cartridges. It works great, and shoots very acccuratly. I have no idea what the guns value is, and don't want to be ripped off. What is the outfit worth on average?

Hello, I have a remington 788 in 222cal that I need to mount a scope on. Has to be a leupold or redfield mount. I have tried the long action and short action mounts and the holes on the receiver won't match up. You would think long action 30/06 short action 308/243/6mm/. Remington also made this gun in 44cal and 30/30. The part # off the redfied boxes are 511159 788la/511158 788sa.If any one has an answer or part# that would be greatr. Thanks. 0 -
You will probably have to have that made. If you can find something like a Boyd's stock for the 788, it is a simple matter to get it checkered and finished (Boyd's does NOT list the 788 in their catalog), but I imagine you will have to go with someone like Wenig's. They can turn out a beautiful stock, but be prepared to back up your checkbook.
