    @csmiffy tell us what you like about the Remington 788. Wasnt that the one with the rear locking action and 6 small rattly locking lugs ? It must have some endearing features I overlooked at the time .

    being cheeky here butting in - yes clunky bolt -yes made as a budget rifle - but one with a good barrel will shoot as well if not better than most rifles on any gunshop shelf - very very accurate - fast lock time helps -trigger was usually quite okay -mine does not shift zero either after storage a bonus - handle very well
