Manufacturer: Remington Type: Rifle Model: 788 Caliber: 22-250 REM Barrel Length: 24" Optics: Simmons Whitetail Wide Angle 6.5-20x50 ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 3460 Serial Number (S/N): B6040556 Reference Number (Ref #): P23028227 Notes: This rifle is a Remington Model 788 bolt-action rifle chambered in .22-250 Remington. The Model 788 was introduced as an economical sporting rifle and is notable for its rear-locking, multi-lug bolt design, which provides strong lockup and a short bolt lift. Despite its utilitarian construction, the model earned a strong reputation for accuracy. Production period: The Remington Model 788 was manufactured approximately from 1967 through 1983. Remington did not encode year of manufacture into Model 788 serial numbers, and serial number B6040556 cannot be used to determine a specific production year within that range without a barrel date code or factory documentation. The rifle is fitted with a 24-inch round blued barrel. It utilizes a rear-locking bolt with nine locking lugs and a short, approximately 60-degree bolt throw. Feeding is from a detachable box magazine with a nominal capacity of four rounds. The receiver is factory drilled and tapped for optics. The stock is hardwood with pressed checkering, a Monte Carlo comb, and a factory recoil pad. A Simmons Whitetail Classic Wide-Angle 6.5–20×50 adjustable-objective scope is mounted using Weaver-style rings. Chambered in .22-250 Remington, typical factory 55-grain ammunition generally produces muzzle velocities in the range of approximately 3,700 to 3,800 feet per second, depending on ammunition selection. Condition is poor cosmetically. The rifle shows heavy external wear consistent with prolonged use. No detailed mechanical deficiencies were noted, and the rifle remains shootable in its current configuration.
