MagNaPort

[Altitude sickness]

I just dropped a Remington 788 off At MagNaPort to have the barrel threaded for a suppressor. My grandson will use it during this years youth hunt.
These “cheap” rifles are amazingly accurate. And now sought after.

A few pics from inside the shop. Everything shown was killed with a handgun.

Has anyone else experienced ridiculous accuracy with the 788s?
I guess they became too expensive to manufacture. The trigger lock time is said to be amongst the fastest. Adding to accuracy.

Have been going to Mag-na-Port since early 70's when they were on South River Road great people to deal with. Have known the Kelly family and watched Kenny grow up with the business, last time I was in there he was telling me in a few years he will be retiring.

I have found the Remington 788's to be tack driving and ridiculously accurate without post purchase "gunsmithing". I have owned them in .308, 6mm Remington, .223 and in 22-250,all very sweet and nice handling. The only thing I've ever done to the was to have the renown 788 triggersmith Brian Volker of Ryan, Iowa "sweeten" the trigger a bit on the 22-250. Brian is well known for his work on 788 triggers.
@attitudesickness, what caliber are you having ported--just curious. Mag na port, in my opinion is so much a better choice than a brake--definitely less "blast/noise" and recoil and muzzle rise...at least on my 300 WM.
