[QUOTE="north of 53, post: 266742, member: 8510"] Great gun I was given one when I was 15 years old by my father as my first gun. I shot that thing at everything that moved and lots that didn't. I could hit any thing running or stopped off hand out to 300 yards. I shot it for about 15 years then I kind of move on to other things. A few years back I started shooting again and took it out to the field to see if I could still shoot it. Well I could still hit the odd thing with it but the barrel had been shot out very badly. Back when I was kid we just shot we never even thought about barrel life. I took the gun and had it rebarreled and chambered to a 22-250 A.I. It was like having a old friend from my youth back with me it just flat out would shoot. I guess maybe I am not totally objective when it comes to a 788 22-250 but I have to say I just love that gun and after having one for close to 35 years now I would buy another in a heart beat if I had the chance. (as long my wife didn't find out). [/QUOTE]
