Thread: The Glory Days of Big Green (Old Remington)

I've had a Rem 700 ADL in 7/08, shot great and I really couldn't fault it as a work horse.
Currently have another Rem but something cooler and probably more accurate , a 788 model in 308. it's very accurate and has a cool action .
Yeah the Remington catalogues were a work of art , .... when accountants run a company and it's about $$ and not passion and innovation. It doesn't take long for this to show in the end product.

The 788 was a bit of an embarrassment for Remington as it was marketed as a budget rifle and consistently outshot the more expensive M700.
