[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1996493, member: 38048"] Hard to make a light weight 788. It's about the heaviest action you can use on a short action. They are definitely my favorite remington. But they most likely will never be made again. Let's hope the new owners will learn how to put the bolt handle in the correct spot so that you have full primary extraction. That's the biggest weakness of most 700s. And I would pay the 30 extra bucks for a real 1/4 inch pinned lug. Doesn't matter how straight the action is or barrel shoulder if you sandwhich that cheap stamped lug in between. Most of which are not even close to parralell. Shep [/QUOTE]
