[QUOTE="Kennibear, post: 970687, member: 51650"] Barrelnut As I recall weren't the Rem 788 actions also rear lock up? I believe Remington designed that action for speedy manufacturing. Remington also claimed the industry's shortest lock time. The Dreysse pin fire was one of the first bolt actions with combustable cartridges and the priming pill attached to the base of the bullet and the firing pin was an actual pin that punch about 2" onto the paper cartouche to reach the primer. It was made very soon after the Civil War and was a rear lockup. Nothing new under the sun... KB [/QUOTE]
