Remington Model 788 .223 Remington Bolt-Action Rifle

Remington Model 788 .223 Remington Bolt-Action Rifle

24" Barrel • Classic Accuracy • Vintage Configuration

The Remington Model 788 is widely regarded as one of the most accurate factory bolt-action rifles of its era. Known for its rear-locking lug design, fast lock time, and excellent barrel quality, the 788 earned a strong reputation among varmint and target shooters despite its utilitarian appearance.

This example is chambered in .223 Remington and features a 24" blued barrel, marked TCB 73, indicating a 1973-barrel date code. It is set up as a scoped rifle with Weaver rings and a Weaver K8-1 fixed-power scope, a classic and period-correct optic pairing. A nylon sling is also included. It has a few areas where a slight vintage plum patina is starting to peek through.
